This appellation stretches across the Côte de Nuits, from Corgoloin to Fixin, with this particular vineyard located in Corgoloin at the top of the slope, near the marble quarry. Pierre is known for producing impressive Pinot Noir, and this wine is no exception. It offers aromas of red and black fruits, complemented by floral notes and a hint of vanilla. While designed for early drinking, it will benefit from a year or two of cellaring. An excellent value wine, ideal with feathered game, free-range poultry, or Guinea fowl.
