Champy Signature Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2010, A.C., Burgundy, France: Gorgeous layers of voluptuously rich fleshy cherry-berry fruit. The nose is so aromatic, it'll draw you head-first into the glass. Rich and textured, this is amazing quality for this price point. I like the mouth-watering acidity for a wide range of dishes from smoked salmon to roast chicken. There's more cherry fruit on the finish along with a touch of smoke and spice. Drink: 2012-2015. 1149 13.50% D 750 mL  $23.95 Score: 91/100. July 6, 2013 Top Rated Red Wine. Best Beef Wine Full Review
