This wine is a fantastic choice for those looking to explore the elegance of Burgundy’s lesser-known gems.”

TASTING NOTES
The Domaine de la Ferté Givry boasts a beautiful garnet-ruby hue. On the nose, rich aromas of blackcurrant and black cherry are complemented by subtle oak undertones. The palate is full-bodied and well-structured, offering a luxurious blend of silky tannins and vibrant red and black fruit flavours. This vintage is noted for its warmth, which has enhanced the richness and depth of the wine, making it an excellent expression of Givry Pinot Noir.

FOOD PAIRING
This Givry Pinot Noir is an ideal companion for a variety of dishes. It pairs beautifully with grilled meats, such as lamb or beef, and is equally delightful with a light beef stew. Its balanced acidity and rich fruit profile also complement mushroom-based dishes and soft cheeses like Brie or Camembert.
