Edmond Cornu Chorey-lès-Beaune Rouge "Les Bons Ores" 2019 750ml

Pierre owns two hectares of 40-year-old vines in this lieu-dit situated at the southern edge of Chorey-lès-Beaune, with a gravel-infused mix of clay and limestone. A mere 10% new oak allows its appellation-typical supple red fruit to lead the show, and this pinot noir balances clean, sweet spices with a suave, mouth-filling texture that is uncommonly dense for a Chorey. Its acidity is fresh and pert without being intrusive.
