I blogged about the Maison de Vin Chantereves last week, as I had tried the above wine a few days before. The confusion about the name of the winery and its labels can be attributed to the company having changed its name somewhere along the line. So what of this wine hailing from the collaboration between a Japanese and a Burgundian winemaker? The Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2011 was a limpid deep pink ruby colour, with a sweet berry acid nose, slightly marred by a touch of alcohol heat. The palate was of strawberry and acid, with just a hint of sweetness and a touch more tannins. An acid slightly tannic backbone gives sterling support. There is certainly enough in this wine to make me want to try some more of their range.
