Haut-Blanville Grande Réserve Pinot Noir 2019
Languedoc, Sud de France, FranceChâteau Haut-Blanville is a family-owned Languedoc wine estate that was founded in 1997 by Béatrice & Bernard Nivollet. Their 70 ha of vineyards extend across The Grés de Montpellier AOP, stretching from the Hérault middle valley to the Vidourle, and from the Mediterranean in the south to the Pic Saint-Loup in the north. Wines are produced naturally, without the use of any additions except a minimal amount of sulphur upon bottling. This pinot noir comes from the limestone and basalt soils of Pézenas at 100-150m, on a cool, north-facing single vineyard. Juicy and fruit-forward, with plum, black raspberry and cherry flooding the medium bodied palate, finishing with a light puff of smoke. Tannins are soft and cocoa dusted, and acidity is humming. A welcoming and friendly pinot for drinking now.Tasted: 30 March 2021Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| ON | $18.95 | 750ml | consignment |
