L'Usine Pinot Noir 2019

L'Usine Pinot Noir is celebrated for its rich, full-bodied character, with lush dark fruit, oak, and vanilla notes. While some appreciate its polished structure and long finish, others find the high alcohol content and unbalanced finale less appealing. The wine's complexity and nuanced flavors, including blackberry, cherry, and earthy undertones, make it a favorite among many, though its premium price may deter some.

Exhibiting a deep garnet hue, L'Usine Pinot Noir opens with an alluring bouquet of ripe black cherry, wild strawberry, and subtle forest floor nuances, underscored by hints of rose petal and baking spices. The palate is elegantly structured, showcasing a harmonious interplay of vibrant acidity and silky tannins, which frame the wine's core of concentrated red fruit flavors. A whisper of minerality adds depth, while the finish is long and resonant, echoing notes of clove and a touch of earthiness. This Pinot Noir exemplifies the finesse and complexity characteristic of premium cool-climate expressions.
