Dizy Terres Rouges 2013

The same plot, a different year: the Terres Rouges 2013 comes from the Pinot Noir vineyard in Dizy that Jacquesson planted in 1993 on 1.33 hectares with 12,000 vines. A blanc de noirs with an extra brut dosage, it shows a vintage that ripened late and still turned out beautifully. At 10,512 bottles the run is larger than for the 2012, but still small for a single vineyard. It comes in gift packaging.

In the glass it convinces with its pronounced vinosity. The sparing dosage keeps it tight and lets the Pinot Noir fruit come through clearly. It is a champagne for the table: poultry, veal or dishes with mushrooms all suit it. Serve it at 10 to 12 °C in a large white wine glass.
