Peloton Côtes du Nuits Villages Pinot Noir 2007 Chevannes, Burgundy
Appellation: Côtes de Nuits – Villages
Grape Variety: 100% Pinot Noir
Negotiant: David Duband
ALCOHOL: 13%
Tasting Note: Bright, vivid and expressive Bourgogne! The nose is fruit-driven and in 2007 vintage style quite precocious, displaying lifted red berry fruit with violet highlights. The palate follows in similar fashion, medium bodied and fruit driven, with a rich depth of ripe fruit, soft tannins and subtle savoury oak. Whilst this wine will gain character over the next few years I would recommend enjoying in its youth.

'It’s juicy and red fruited with a slightly pinched herb bitterness on the finish, although otherwise delivers a nice line in line. There’s light attractive kitten’s tongue tannins and clean acidity. It’s not rocket surgery but does offer a good drink of Burgundy, in a modern fruit driven style, at a fair price.'
