2023 Excuse my French Pinot Noir, Languedoc

Excuse My French Pinot Noir from Languedoc is a vibrant, fruit-driven red that brings a playful yet authentic take on this classic grape variety. Crafted in the sun-drenched vineyards of southern France, this Pinot Noir benefits from the Mediterranean climate, which enhances ripeness and concentration, while cool night temperatures help retain freshness and elegance. Designed to be approachable and easy-drinking, this wine captures the charm of Pinot Noir in a smooth, silky style.

Bright ruby in color, it offers inviting aromas of red cherry, wild strawberry, and raspberry, layered with subtle hints of violet, spice, and a touch of earthiness. The palate is light to medium-bodied, with juicy red fruit flavors balanced by soft tannins and a refreshing acidity. A hint of baking spice and gentle oak influence adds complexity, leading to a smooth, easygoing finish with lingering notes of cranberry and dried herbs.

This Pinot Noir is an excellent match for roast chicken, grilled salmon, or mushroom risotto. Its bright fruit and silky texture also pair beautifully with charcuterie, soft cheeses, or a simple Margherita pizza. Best enjoyed young, this wine is perfect for casual meals, picnics, and relaxed gatherings.
