2022 Edmond Cornu & Fils Bourgogne Rouge Les Barrigards
$384 case
100% Pinot Noir
Cornu’s exemplary Bourgogne Rouge comes from a single parcel of vines planted in the 1980s downslope of Chorey-lès-Beaune, across the Route Nationale on gravelly soils of clay and limestone.
Pierre judiciously employs no new oak during its 12-month élevage.
This pinot noir offers lovely purity in its profile of bright red fruits, damp earth, and incense, capturing the essence of this sector of the Côte de Beaune.
