Pinot Noir
end
powdery tannins

Impressive for the pure carmine color of its juice, “La Montée Rouge” takes quality to the next level. The juice is refined and seamlessly integrated with silky tannins, reminiscent of the Côte de Nuits. The nose evokes the scent of rosebuds and peonies. The impression it leaves makes it a wine without artifice, perfect for drinking on its own or with a meal.
