2018 Domaine Nicole Lamarche Bourgogne Hautes Cotes de Nuits

The Hautes Côtes are increasingly coming into their own in hotter, drier Burgundian vintages. This pale, delicate, refreshing Pinot Noir comes from a 1.53-hectare parcel close to Vosne-Romanée at 380 meters of altitude and has impressive freshness and lift, despite being picked last. Spice and tobacco notes from from 30% whole bunches add extra complexity. Drinking Window 2021 - 2026.
