🏰news | features + short tasting note IN ENGLISH
【From the renowned goat cheese village of Chavignol, Domaine Delaporte's Sancerre Chavignol Rouge 2020 is a beautiful expression of Loire Pinot Noir, crafted with a meticulous organic approach and hand-harvesting, delivering a wine of remarkable finesse, freshness, and pure fruit.】 This 2020 vintage, ready to drink now but with aging potential, displays a deep ruby-violet color. The nose is intense and well-integrated, bursting with very ripe red fruits like cherry, blackberry, and raspberry, complemented by hints of cooked red fruits, roasted coffee beans, graphite, and cinnamon. The palate is round and smooth, featuring tight tannins that frame flavors of smoke and prune, with a medium-plus acidity and body.
🍴 Chinese Cantonese food pairing various types of suggestion east or west corresponding to wine cost IN ENGLISH
This versatile Pinot Noir is excellent with Cantonese roast chicken (白切雞), crispy skin pork belly (燒肉), or even a light stir-fried beef with seasonal vegetables. For Western dishes, consider duck confit, mushroom-based pasta, or a classic coq au vin. It also pairs well with goat cheese, especially the local Crottin de Chavignol.
🥂 fit for event suggestion IN ENGLISH
Ideal for a casual weeknight dinner, a picnic with friends, or a gathering where you want a charming and approachable red wine that still offers complexity. It's also a great choice for exploring the lighter side of French reds.
