DOMAINE D'EDOUARD BOURGOGNE PINOT NOIR 750 ml

Discover the refined allure of Domaine d'Edouard Bourgogne Pinot Noir, a red wine hailing from the northern reaches of Burgundy in the Côtes d'Auxerre area. This Pinot Noir emerges from a dedicated 33-acre estate established by Edouard Lepesme, whose journey took him from marketing roles with Burgundy and Champagne merchants to hands-on roles in prestigious vineyards across France and beyond starting in 2011. By 2014, he secured this prime land, now thriving with Pinot Noir alongside Chardonnay, Aligoté, and Gamay vines rooted in chalky-limestone soils.

Crafted with meticulous care, every bunch arrives by hand from organic plots, sparking fermentation through native yeasts alone. Edouard keeps interventions minimal—employing scant sulfur and skipping oak entirely—to let the cool regional climate and precise viticulture shine through. The outcome? A Pinot Noir defined by its pristine clarity, elegant poise, and harmonious structure, bottled at 13% ABV in a classic 750 ml format for just $30.99.

Picture uncorking a bottle that captures the essence of its origins: a crisp chill tempers vibrant red-currant notes with subtle stalky undertones, while a lively freshness offsets gentle tannins and a subtle dry heart. It's the kind of wine that invites contemplation over a quiet evening meal, pairing effortlessly with roasted poultry, earthy mushrooms, or charcuterie boards. From the first sip, its finesse draws you in, revealing layers of balance that linger without overwhelming.

For enthusiasts seeking an authentic Burgundy Pinot Noir beyond the usual suspects, Domaine d'Edouard stands out in Côtes d'Auxerre, near the famed Chablis zone. This expression rewards those who value purity in their reds—vibrant yet restrained, fresh yet profound. Stock your cellar or elevate your next gathering with this gem, where tradition meets thoughtful innovation in every glass.
