Bourgogne Pinot Noir, Vincent Girardin
The Girardin family was based in santenay, In the Cote de Beaune, for three Centuries until, Vincent Girardin, dynamic grower-turned-négociant moved from Santenay to large premises in Meursault a few years ago, and quality has moved up a gear with him. Girardin is now doing the opposite of many producers: reducing volume and raising standard. For example, he now refuses to buy from growers who use insecticides or herbicides, part of his own move towards a biodynamic approach.

Supple red burgundy from vineyards neighbouring Volnay and Pommard. Bright red cherry and raspberry fruit aromas lead to a lively, medium-bodied palate enhanced by the subtlest touch of spicy oak.
