Domaine Philippe Gilbert Menetou Salon Rouge 2020 Color:Red Earth lingers on the finishCold climate Pinot Noir at its best. On the nose, the wine shows fresh raspberry, black cherry cordial, and orange peel, fruit notes framing a current of underbrush, wintergreen, and white clay. The palate is silky soft but alive with acidity, with resonant tones of cherry, orange, and brick dust. An earthy, savory and surprisingly sturdy wine, this Pinot is for classic savory pork and lamb dishes. A few years in the cellar wouldn't be wasted either.
