2018 Mercurey 1er Cru Clos Voyens, Maison Pagnotta

Producer: Maison Pagnotta Wine: 2018 Mercurey 1er Cru Clos Voyens Varietal: 100% Pinot Noir Tasting Notes: "A note of mocha fills and dominates the nose on this wine. Mocha also characterizes the sonorous palate, which is roasted and mellow at the same time. This roasted note broadens out the cherry fruit on the palate, but this is counteracted by freshness." - Anne Krebiehl MW Wine Enthusiast Food Pairings: Mercurey brings out the best from beef rib steaks, or joints of beef or lamb, braised or in sauce. Roast pork is well suited to its rich aromas, as are poultry-based stews. As for the cheeseboard, this wine harmonizes equally well with either mild, soft cheeses or aged versions. Cellaring: Drink now or hold until 2025
