"One of the most fantastic Pinot Noirs according to Wine Advocate, not to be missed by lovers of this exceptional grape variety!"

The Pinot Noir Saint Georges 2022 is one of the most fantastic Pinot Noirs I know. It has an exceptional nose of fragrant red fruits and conifers against a backdrop of crushed stones. The palate is silky, precise, and concentrated, with a juicy but angular finish and impressive length. This is an exceptional wine that clearly stands out from its competitors. 2024-2030" (Wine Advocate 2024)
