Alain Burguet, a winemaker from the Côte de Nuits in Gevrey-Chambertin (Côte-d’Or), vinifies a plot of Pinot Noir spanning approximately 1 hectare under the Bourgogne appellation. The domaine’s Bourgogne Rouge Les Pince Vin offers a beautiful balance between density of material and aromatic power (small black fruits), with a slightly tannic yet supple mouthfeel that provides freshness. A good Pinot Noir Bourgogne to enjoy now and over the next few years.

Les Rugiens takes its name from the red clay soil where the grapes grow. It has a deep red color with hints of purple. The aroma is intense, with ripe black fruits like blackcurrant and black cherry, mixed with subtle spicy notes of vanilla and white pepper. You might also catch a whiff of cocoa and coffee, adding depth to the scent. When you taste it, you’ll notice its round and expansive character, with a silky texture that keeps the finesse of Pinot Noir intact. The finish is long-lasting,
