Domaine Girard Pinot Noir 2023

Domaine Girard Pinot Noir 2023
IGP d’Oc
Philippe Girard makes a beautiful Pinot Noir, made for summer drinking!  The grapes come from from high altitude 30-year old vines with low yields of 35hl/ha in the Limoux area, near Carcassonne.  By avoiding oak-ageing he is able to showcase the wonderful purity of fruit of Pinot Noir.
It is medium/pale purple in colour with a vibrant Pinot nose of black cherries.  On the palate, it is delicate and full of joyous black cherry fruit, finishing with redcurrants and a hint of pepper with a crisp finish.  Lightly chilled it goes perfectly with charcuterie, salads or lamb cutlets grilled with Provence herbs.
