For DESFORGES Pinot noir, you can expect a wine that captures the essence of this delicate grape variety. As one of the oldest and most challenging to grow, pinot noir is known for its thin skin and sensitivity to climate conditions. Despite these challenges, it produces some of the world's most coveted wines when cultivated by skilled winemakers in regions like California's Sonoma Coast or Oregon's Willamette Valley. Expect a light-bodied wine with aromas of red cherry, raspberry, rose petal, earth, mushroom, and forest floor, which can evolve into intricate secondary and tertiary notes as it ages. Pinot noir pairs wonderfully with a variety of dishes, including salmon, duck, roast chicken, and mushroom dishes, making it a versatile choice for your table.
