Roland Lavantureux Les Fauconniers Bourgogne Épineuil 2022

Burgundy, FranceThe 2022 vintage is a complete and generous pinot noir, immediately noticeable for its rich dark cherry and raspberry that leap from the glass. Juicy cherry and wild strawberry, with vibrant cranberry flecks, penetrate the fleshy midpalate and carry through the finish on smoother tannins. Balanced and supple, this is a solid pinot noir ready for the dinner table. Here on the West Coast, that could mean grilled salmon or a mushroom galette. Lavantureux’s deft hands yield a wine that bridges village Bourgogne and classic Côte d’Or sensibility.Tasted: 20 April 2026Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
