Second tasting in a family owned property
After your first tasting, it will be time to move on to our second visit and tasting of Burgundy wines. Arrive at a family owned property that has been established for a number of generations. This is where we will have you taste the Great Pinots Noirs of the wine producing region. Spiritual region for the Pinot Noir, young Burgundy wines are usually of a silky texture with typical raspberry and cherry aromas, refreshing acidity and soft tannins. With time and ageing, the wines become more complex and develop interesting aromas such as jam fruits to gamey, tobacco or truffle and even forest floor or undergrowth.
