Clos Saint Fiacre, Orleans Rouge, Loire Valley, France 2018
{sustainable} 80% Pinot Meunier, 20% Pinot Noir

BLACK CHERRY & CRANBERRY, HERBACEOUS SPICE, FIRM
Hailing from the northerly and somewhat rare Loire appellation known as Orléans, this is a double feature starring Pinot Meunier, a mutation of Pinot Noir best known for its work in Champagne, with a bit of support from the more familiar Pinot Noir. The result is bright yet appealingly ripe and generous, with familiar cherry flavors and spicy hints of juniper and oak, falling pleasantly somewhere between Oregon Pinot Noir and Loire Cab Franc.
Serving Suggestions: Pumpernickel crostini w/ fig & prosciutto. Barbecued pork ribs w/ herbed dry rub. Grilled mushroom & veggie skewers w/ chimichurri.
