I am a particular fan of Louis Jadot. You can’t go wrong with this brand for high-class and elegant wine.

This fine French Pinot Noir is oak aged in cask for 12 months to soften and enrich the wine. The dedication and oak really comes through in the wine. This is a classic, elegant, sophisticated and beautiful Burgundian Pinot Noir with a touch of fruit.

Ideally it should be drank within seven years from the vintage. Serve with lamb, game and cheese.
