Sensory Description:

Fragrant with notes of red cherry, wild strawberry, and violet, the 2022 vintage unfolds on the palate with graceful freshness and soft, fine-grained tannins. A streak of minerality adds lift beneath the fruit, while subtle hints of spice and earth weave complexity into the finish. Silky, bright, and undeniably Burgundian, this wine is both accessible now and structured for short-term aging.

Winemaker's Background:

Fifth-generation winemaker Nicolas Rossignol founded his eponymous domaine in 1997, drawing on formative experience at top estates across France and South Africa. Based in Beaune, he now works with 30 appellations across 17 hectares, crafting expressive, terroir-driven wines from plots in Volnay, Pommard, and surrounding villages. Rooted in tradition and refined by biodynamic inspiration, Rossignol’s wines are celebrated for their finesse, detail, and purity of fruit.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve at 60–64°F. Ideal with roasted pork tenderloin, duck breast with cherries, aged cheeses, or game birds. The wine’s elegance and mineral edge also complement charcuterie, earthy mushrooms, and classic French fare.

Fresh, focused, and finely layered, the 2022 Domaine Nicolas Rossignol Bourgogne Pinot Noir is a graceful interpretation of Pinot Noir, crafted by a vigneron whose hands know the rhythms of the Côte like his own heartbeat.
