【Discover the elegance and perfume of Coquard Loison-Fleurot's 2014 Clos Saint-Denis Grand Cru, a refined red Burgundy often considered the more sensual sibling to their muscular Clos de la Roche.】 The 2014 Burgundy vintage, despite a difficult start, produced good wines with a mild, dry spring leading to successful budburst and flowering. This Pinot Noir offers a beautiful, perfumed nose with strawberry, ripe-raspberry, and orange-leaf aromas. It's dark crimson in color, with masses of fruit, great balance, and reverberations on the finish. On the palate, it's full-bodied yet tight and intense, with candied sweetness, classy new oak, licorice, mint, bacon oil, and orange peel. Expect a velvety and perfumed profile with cloudberry, mulberry, black cherry, violet, and white pepper, culminating in a fine acidity and a long, elegant finish.
🍴 This Grand Cru pairs exquisitely with roast squab, duck with cherries, venison loin, or aged Brillat-Savarin cheese. It also complements duck, goose, and other game birds beautifully.
🥂 While enjoyable now, this wine truly shines with further aging. Cellar for 5-20 years to allow its complexity to fully develop, making it an ideal choice for a significant anniversary or a connoisseur's tasting event.
