Vintages Wine Panel: The scion of a respected Burgundian family with old roots, the family- owned Daniel Rion estate was founded in 1995 with only two hectares; it now encompasses 18 hectares in 18 different appellations. This wine has a complex nose featuring dark cherry, beetroot, nuts and toasty vanilla. The berry-laden palate is dry and beautifully structured, with excellent supporting oak. There is a nice focused acidity here that completes the package wonderfully. My note : Gorgeous nose that’s rich with ripe cherry and violet aromas, and a little rose petal. Satin smooth on the tongue with a medium-bodied weight. Mouth-watering acidity makes this an ideal food companion. A wine for seduction.

Pinot Noir food pairings: seared duck breast, pork chops, veal cutlets.
