2023 Bouchard Aîne & Fils Heritage du Conseiller Pinot Noir, Burgundy

Bright ruby in color, this Pinot Noir opens with inviting aromas of ripe red cherry, raspberry, and wild strawberry, layered with subtle floral notes of violet and a touch of earthy spice. The palate is fresh and medium-bodied, with silky tannins supporting vibrant red fruit flavors. Hints of black pepper, dried herbs, and a delicate oak influence add depth, leading to a smooth, refined finish with lingering notes of cranberry and soft spice.

This Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with roast duck, grilled salmon, or mushroom risotto. Its bright acidity and fine tannins also make it an excellent match for charcuterie, mild cheeses, or herb-roasted chicken. Best enjoyed within the next few years for its vibrant fruit and elegance.
