Antonin Rodet Maranges 1er Cru Les Roussots Red 2020
Country/Region of Origin: France

Region: France, Burgundy

Grape Varierty: Pinot Noir

Vinifcation and Maturing: The grapes are harvested by hand and totally destemmed to avoid any kind of bitterness or unwanted vegetal aromas. Maceration lasts about 3 weeks. Traditional vinification is carried out in temperature-controlled concrete vats. The wine is then aged for 12 months in oak barrels with 30% new oak. It will give the perfect touch of toasted aromas to the wine and its ripe tannins.

Tasting Notes: This wine is a colour of intense garnet red with aromas of black fruits and undergrowth. It is a dense and structured wine with strong tannins. Flavours of black fruits such as cherry and blackberry.

Food Pairing: Warm and fluid, its tannic structure is notably delicate and suvtle. Its natural partners are poultry and red meats which will not clash with its tannins, especially in spicey exoctic dishes to which its peppery vinosity forms a lively counterpart.
