Claire Naudin Bourgogne La Plante 2024
Introduction
This red wine originates from France, specifically the Burgundy region, and falls under the Bourgogne AOC appellation (though it is sometimes marketed as Vin de France). Domaine Henri Naudin-Ferrand is run by Claire Naudin, who took over the reins of this family estate in 1994. Claire Naudin is a winemaker with a strong character, advocating for sustainable viticulture and a low-intervention approach in the cellar to allow the terroir to fully express itself, even refusing organic certification due to her opposition to the standardization of wine.
Wine Description
The Bourgogne La Plante is made from 100% Pinot Noir. It displays a bright, clear ruby colour. On the nose, it is very expressive with intense aromas of small red fruits (strawberry, Morello cherry), violet, and notes of wild pepper. On the palate, it is noted for its fruitiness, freshness, and suppleness. It is a light and juicy wine, offering supple, melted tannins, making it an excellent wine for immediate enjoyment. Vinification often involves whole clusters and early pressing to favour the fruit and minimize tannin extraction. The wine is produced using organic practices (sustainable farming) but is not certified. The optimal drinking window is estimated to be around 4 to 5 years from the vintage.
