Domaine Laurent Chardigny Bourgogne RougeStraightforward and clean, this opens with red apple skin, tart cherry, and cranberry, edged by rose petal, dried herbs, and a faint chalky note. The palate is light bodied and uncomplicated, with brisk acidity and soft, unobtrusive tannins giving the wine an easy, unfussy shape. Subtle earthy tones and a touch of wet stone carry through the mid palate, finishing dry, fresh, and quietly savory. A simple, honest Bourgogne Pinot that prioritizes
