2020 Domaine Cornu, Bourgogne, Hautes Cotes de Beaune Rouge

Domaine Cornu is a family-run estate located in the village of Magny-lès-Villers, where the family has been working the land for generations. This wine is made from Pinot Noir grown in the limestone and clay soils that define the higher slopes of the Hautes Côtes de Beaune. In the glass, it displays red cherry and raspberry fruit with subtle notes of damp earth, supported by a firm, structured texture. The 2020 growing season was marked by early warmth and dry conditions, resulting in concentrated fruit expression and a well-defined tannic backbone. This is a balanced, approachable bottle that is ready to enjoy now but possesses the composure to hold in your cellar for a few more years.
