"Following the 2020 vintage, which provided a robust, structured Belle Dame, the 2021 marks a return to elegance and refinement. It positively flows across despite its dense concentration. There are sumptuous, pure flavors of damson and blueberry while the flint soils provide a fine line on the finish. Tasted from wooden tank around half-way through its maturation stage, it will be bottled unfined and unfiltered. I'll put it on my shopping list."
Winemaker Notes:
"The “grand cru” of Sancerre red wines. ‘Belle Dame’ is cherished for its pure flint soils, which gives Pinot Noir here a refinement and a spice that is captivating. Aromas of black cherries, blackberries, light pepper. Fresh yet full-bodied; mineral notes mix with profound berry flavors."
Alcohol: 13%
