Aurelien Verdet Bourgogne Hautes Cotes De Nuits Rouge Le Prieure 2022

Aurelien Verdet Le Prieure Bourgogne Hautes-Cotes de Nuits Rouge 2022 comes from the elevated vineyards of Burgundy, France, where cooler climates bring out the refined side of Pinot Noir. Made from 100% Pinot Noir, this dry red captures a graceful balance between freshness and depth, reflecting the purity and restraint the region is known for. Bottled at 13.0% alcohol, it offers an approachable yet distinctly Burgundian character.

On the nose, it opens with bright red cherry, wild strawberry, and subtle floral notes, followed by soft hints of forest floor and gentle spice. The palate is smooth and silky, with cranberry, raspberry, and delicate tannins that carry through to a clean, mineral finish. Best enjoyed lightly chilled, this wine shines alongside roasted chicken, creamy mushroom dishes, or simply on its own as an easygoing yet elegant glass.
