2020 Racine Pinot Noir

Racine Pinot Noir 2020 truly offers a bouquet of flavors, capturing floral scents of violet and flowering wild thyme. Raspberry licorice entices further along with wild strawberry, dark cherries, tobacco & spice. The palate is juicy but balanced by rich forest floor, clove and savory flavors. There’s a good tension between acid and fine tannins offering a well-rounded palate with appealing length. The vineyards that are home to this Pinot Noir are located between the Pyrenees to the South and the Black Mountains to the North, enjoying a privileged climatic position. The Mediterranean climate is tempered by the softness of the Atlantic influences. This extraordinary mixture of sunny and warm days and cool nights produces amazing wines. Pair this Pinot Noir with classic French dishes of light and creamy or mustard-based sauces along with gamey meats like rabbit or kidney. Racine Pinot Noir also complements Spring vegetables and simple charcuteries.
