Les Combes Rouge 2018

Pierre Naigeon

Les Combes, certified organic by Eurofeuille, is a biodynamic and natural red Burgundy wine made from the Bourgogne-Pinot Noir AOP. The sixty-year-old grapes grow near the commune of Gilly-les-Cîteaux, in the Côte de Nuits region and bordering the Chambolle-Musigny appellation. The aging potential is five to ten years. Serving temperature: between 14 and 16°C.

Vinification

The Les Combes plot from which this organic Burgundy is produced consists of limestone scree on Bresse marl and clayey limestone. The harvest is carried out manually in 6 kg crates to preserve the grapes. A rigorous manual sorting is carried out, followed by traditional vinification with indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged for ten months in oak barrels, 20% of which are new. Bottled without filtration or fining.

Tasting

Raspberry, red fruits, violet on the nose; the palate brings a note of licorice, notes of truffle, and confirms the raspberry. Les Combes is a generous, generous wine, with a very pleasant sapidity and depth. Pair it with coq au vin prepared with excellent poultry, serve it next to a beautiful platter of charcuterie, or make it the companion of a rib of beef.
