Tasting - "Champteloup"

Name: Champteloup
Type: Pinot Noir
Region: Loire Valley
Country: France
Year: 2011
Price: $15












My Review:

This wine is a dark and rich red color.  It has earthy scents with hints of tobacco and leathery taste.  This wine did not have a fruity taste though hints of black cherry could be detected.

Shop Review:

Serge de Bucy employs a light touch in his touch in his wine making, using no wood and doing as little as possible to preserve freshness.  Bright cherry and strawberry fruits are followed by a soft, smooth palate.
