A Bourgogne-level Pinot Noir that, based on historical estate sourcing patterns not separately confirmed for the 2022 vintage, typically draws fruit from small villages north of the Côte de Beaune, where limestone slopes have historically given the wine more definition than the regional label suggests.

About the Wine

Domaine Decelle & Fils typically sources fruit for this Bourgogne-level cuvée from villages across the northern Côte de Beaune and Côte Chalonnaise, on limestone-based soils characteristic of the estate's holdings.

The result is a Bourgogne Pinot Noir with more definition than its regional classification suggests, shaped for its drinking window rather than extended cellaring.

At the table

Pairing notes across Japanese, Thai and Western cuisine.

The wine's brisk acidity and moderate tannin sit comfortably alongside dashi- and soy-based dishes, milder Thai preparations, and classic Burgundian fare, without overwhelming delicate proteins or being overwhelmed by strong spice.

Japanese

  • Chicken sukiyaki
  • Maguro akami (tuna sashimi)
  • Beef tataki

Why it worksThe wine's brisk acidity and moderate tannin sit comfortably alongside soy- and dashi-based preparations and lightly seared beef, without overwhelming the delicate character of raw tuna.

Thai

  • Moo palow (mildly spiced braised pork)
  • Sai ua (northern Thai sausage, mild version)
  • Mushroom-based Thai dishes

Why it worksIts red-fruit core and restrained tannin pair well with mild spice and umami-driven dishes; very chili-forward or heavily sweet preparations tend to overpower the wine's fruit.

Western

  • Roast chicken (poulet rôti)
  • Veal
  • Escargots à la bourguignonne

Why it worksThese are classic Burgundian pairings — earthy, delicate proteins that echo the wine's regional character and moderate structure.

Winemaking

Grapes are hand-harvested from villages typically sourced across the northern Côte de Beaune and Côte Chalonnaise, then fermented using a combination of traditional wooden Burgundy tanks and stainless steel, the estate's general practice, before ageing for about 12 months in oak barrels, consistent with the estate's traditional practice of periodic barrel renewal.
