The result is bold yet composed: dark cherry, blackberry and savoury spice layered over polished tannins and refined oak. This six-bottle set offers a compelling lens into Central Otago’s distinctive energy, equally at home in the cellar or alongside duck, venison or earthy mushroom dishes.

Product Description: Supple, scented and finely poised, this is a classically styled Burgundy Pinot Noir. The 2023 Domaine Paul Chavy Bourgogne Rouge is drawn from 100% de-stemmed Pinot Noir, vinified with traditional care in Burgundy, France. The fruit undergoes a long maceration of two to three weeks in stainless steel, followed by 11 months’ maturation in seasoned oak barrels, then a final rest in steel prior to bottling. The result is a light-to-medium-bodied red with delicate structure, vibrant red fruit and fine-grained tannins. Unadorned by new oak, it remains faithful to both variety and origin, expressing Pinot Noir’s inherent elegance with quiet clarity. Domaine Paul Chavy is based in Puligny-Montrachet and is better known for its white wines, yet brings the same restrained touch to its reds. The fruit for this Bourgogne Rouge is selected with precision, gently handled throughout fermentation and ageing to retain fragrance and finesse. Oak barrels used range from one to five years old, imparting texture without intrusion. Blending occurs after élevage to ensure balance and consistency, with minimal intervention across the process. The wine is intended for early to medium-term drinking, offering purity of fruit and immediate charm over extracted power. The 2023 vintage is notable for its suppleness and approachability. With soft tannins, lifted aromatics and minimal oak, it delivers a graceful expression of regional Pinot Noir, suitable as a companion to roast duck, herb-crusted poultry or mild, creamy cheeses. Tasting Notes NOSE – Fragrant red fruit Bright aromas of cherry, raspberry and strawberry, lifted and pure with no overt oak. PALATE – Silky and approachable Juicy red berries carry through on a supple, smooth palate with light, integrated tannins. FINISH – Clean and measured A modest, balanced close focused on finesse and drinkability rather than density.

Domaine Chanson Le Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2021 vintage has a bright red colouring in the glass. Scents of violet mixed with crunchy aromas of ripe cherries and strawberries on a hint of spice. Complex and full of energy. Tight texture on a very pure fruit. Long aftertaste with spicy nuances. Super classic Burgundy, ideal with braised and roasted meats, as well as meat-sauced pastas and regional cheeses (Comté, Epoisses, Citeaux). After a mild winter, spring settled down in March with very warm temperatures. May and June were warm and dry. Summer was warm and dry as well and punctuated by several heat waves and a few thunderstorms épisodes which brought some water. All the plots with a soil combination of clay were less sensitive to the hydric stress and lack of water. The harvest started around August 20 in Burgundy, an historically precocious date for the region. At Chanson, they started on August 23 under a bright sunshine. The red wines are crunchy, energetic, lively with a pure fruit.
