Bruno is actually descended from a famous wine-making family from Burgundy, but growing up in the South of France meant he turned his attention to the wealth of wines available in this part of the country. He began this journey in 1999 and teamed up with François Chamboissier in 2003 to extend their portfolio into the Southern Rhone.
This is an incredibly fussy grape which needs the perfect combination of temperature, soil type, weather conditions and skill in the winery if a good wine is going to be made. Thankfully in this instance, Bruno has managed to combine these elements and create a Pinot Noir that shows wonderful aromas of cranberry and raspberry fruits. Light and soft with a delicate velvety finish.
The hipsters grape variety! This is a wine that until recently was completely unknown but its fortunes have transformed dramatically to become a regular on the winelists of trendy bars and restaraunts. Floral and enticing on the nose, exuberantly fresh on the palate, with pear drop fruit, a slightly salty edge and underlying minerality.
