2023 Patricia Raquin Bourgogne Rouge, Burgundy, France
ABOUT THE WINE
The 2023 Bourgogne Rouge from Patricia Raquin is a classic representation of regional Pinot Noir, sourced from multiple parcels across the CĂŽte dâOr. This vintage shows bright, youthful fruitâred currants, crushed cranberries, and fresh herbsâalongside earthy undertones and a faint touch of oak from partial aging in neutral barrels. Crafted using traditional Burgundian methods, fermentation occurs with native yeasts, followed by gentle extraction and minimal intervention to preserve purity and terroir expression. The wine sees brief Ă©levage in a mix of stainless steel and seasoned oak, allowing the fruit to shine with clarity and vibrancy.
The cooler but dry conditions of the 2023 growing season yielded grapes with excellent freshness, aromatic intensity, and moderate alcohol, resulting in a balanced wine ideal for early drinking. Pairs beautifully with roast chicken, duck breast, mushroom risotto, or charcuterie and soft-rind cheeses.
