ABOUT THE PRODUCER
Pierre Mayeul is the story of three old friends united by the same passion for Burgundy and with a shared goal to produce high-quality wines where each cuvee beautifully represents the individual terroir and 'climat' of each appellation. Each with a long history of Burgundian winemaking they vinify their wines in an old castle in Ladoix and age the wines in barrels in cellars that date back to the 17th Century situated in the very heart of Beaune.
TASTING NOTES
The elegant nose of dark cherries, blackberries, and delicate violets captivates the senses, while whispers of leather, earth, and truffle add complexity. The sophisticated oak ageing reveals notes of cedar and baking spices. On the palate, this Grand Cru enchants with a whole body, firm yet refined tannins, and beautifully balanced acidity. A symphony of flavours, including black currants, plums, and a hint of dark chocolate, culminating in a long, memorable finish.
FOOD PAIRING
To honour this outstanding wine, pair it with indulgent dishes such as a butter-basted filet mignon with a red wine reduction, or a truffle-infused risotto showcasing wild mushrooms and aged Parmesan. The wine's depth of flavour and structure also makes it a superb partner for a roasted rack of lamb with a rosemary and garlic crust, or a sumptuous duck confit with a side of parsnip puree & sautéed greens.
