The wine has an intense, dark robe for a Pinot Noir. On the nose, it offers prominent notes of small stone fruits like sour cherry, with the pit more pronounced than the fruit itself, accompanied by perceptible acidity, smokiness, and noble spice. In the mouth, the tannins are present but not fully integrated, suggesting potential for further aging.
The 2022 Pierre-Henri Rougeot Côte de Nuits Villages 'Les Plantes du Bois' is a red wine made from Pinot Noir, produced in the Burgundy region of France, specifically from the village of Comblanchien on a mid-slope, clay-limestone terroir. This cuvée, named "the plants of the forest," is crafted by Pierre-Henri Rougeot, a respected winemaker known for his minimal-intervention approach and organic farming practices.
