Elegant and complex on the nose with dark cherry, wild strawberry, and subtle earthy undertones of forest floor and dried violets. The palate reveals fine-grained tannins with layers of red fruit, iron-tinged minerality, and a whisper of oak-derived spice. Medium-bodied with excellent acidity providing freshness and tension, the finish is long, silky, and persistently fruity with a characteristic Pommard structure and depth.

About this wine
Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru from Albert Bichot's Domaine du Clos Frantin, made entirely from Pinot Noir grown within the walled vineyard of Vougeot in Burgundy's Côte de Nuits, one of the region's largest grand crus.
Expect a wine of structure and depth: dark cherry and forest-floor notes, firm tannins and a savoury, mineral backbone that rewards food. Serve at 16-18°C alongside beef, venison, game birds or duck, dishes with enough weight and richness to meet its power.
