ABOUT THE PRODUCER
Madame Veuve Point is the unique story of a woman winemaker whose wines won the Grand Prize at the 1904 Saint Louis World Fair, and have continued making excellent Burgundy wines ever since. Now, Géraldine Point is the latest generation of the family to pick up the torch and continue a hundred year old wine making tradition.
Graced by a Château which has been in the same family for six centuries, a church with an elegant steeple, beautiful homes and parks, Rully (pronounced Ruilly) is a very old wine making village. This Pinot Noir extends over the slopes composed of brown or limestone soils with a slight clay texture, yielding wines which compete with the best of the nearby Côte de Beaune wines.
TASTING NOTES
The cherry red appearance with a dark garnet tint gives way to a bouquet of black (cassis, blackberry) and red fruits (cherry), liquorice, lilac and gentian. The freshness is evident and the blended tannins complete a beautiful long-lasting finish.
FOOD PAIRING
Pair this with roast poultry or in a sauce (such as coq au vin), meats such as liver, sweetbreads and kidney, also in a sauce or simply pan-fried. Risottos, pastas with meat sauce and poultry are also excellent choices.
