Delarche Bourgogne Rouge 'La Garenne' '22

From a single vineyard at the base of Corton hill, this Pinot Noir displays a vibrant ruby core. The nose bursts with primary aromas of crushed raspberries, peony, and damp earth with subtle spice undertones. The palate delivers immediate pleasure - flavors of wild strawberry, blood orange, and white pepper dance across silky tannins with refreshing acidity (6.3 g/L TA) that earned 90-92 point scores. Aged 12 months in neutral oak, this 13% alcohol wine finishes with a stony persistence. Perfect for roasted chicken or mushroom dishes - the 2022 vintage shows why even Bourgogne Rouge from top sites overdelivers.
