Country: France / Burgundy
Variety: Pinot Noir
Winery: Maison Jessiaume /
From the new, négociant side of Domaine Jessiaume, now owned by Scottish businessman Sir David Murray. The wine hints at the grandeur possible from Clos de Vougeot without quite achieving it. The power is there, but without the black richness. Instead, there are fine tannins, firm dark fruit skins and elegance. Age for 3–4 years.
