The producer
Situated in the heart of the renowned Côte de Nuits, the estate is known for its exceptional Pinot Noir and Chardonnay offerings. With a history dating back to the late 19th century, the domaine has passed down through generations, combining traditional winemaking practices with a modern approach. The vineyards are carefully tended to, practicing sustainable viticulture to ensure the optimal expression of the grapes. Dom. Coquard Loison-Fleurot's wines, including their Bourgogne Rouge and expressions from prestigious appellations, consistently showcase a harmonious blend of elegance, complexity, and a true reflection of Burgundy's terroir.
The wine
A delightful and accessible expression of Pinot Noir that exemplifies the winemaker's expertise and the region's terroir. With a beautiful ruby red colour, this wine introduces itself with an inviting bouquet of red berries, such as raspberries and cherries, accompanied by subtle floral notes. On the palate, it unveils a harmonious balance between bright acidity and soft tannins, delivering flavours of ripe strawberries and a hint of spice. Despite its classification as a regional wine, it reflects the meticulous care given to the vines and the precision in winemaking, offering a genuine taste of Burgundian character. The 2019 Bourgogne Rouge is a testament to Dom. Coquard Loison-Fleurot's commitment to producing approachable yet nuanced wines that honour the essence of Burgundy.
