J.L. Denois

2022 Pinot Noir Grand Vin, Haute Vallée de l'Aude IGP

J.L. Denois is a Pinot Noir pioneer in the Languedoc and the Grand Vin cuvée is a testament to his 35 years of honing the variety for Limoux. In the Grand Vin cuvée, priorityy is given to delicacy, elegance, and seduction as opposed to power. This Pinot is a home run: red cherry, tobacco, toast, florest floor, mocha, vanilla, and white chocolate—just wildly delicious and beautifully textured. So rich without bullying the palate or leaning on alcohol for its body, it unfolds in the glass as it greets the air.
