Boisset Bourgogne Pinot Noir

Jean-Claude Boisset 2016 Bourgogne Pinot Noir “Les Ursulines” ($17.99)

Jean-Claude Boisset

Clear ruby color, shading to a clear edge. Subtle, clean red berry aromas lead into a fresh, acidic flavor that mirrors the nose, brisk and long. Label claims 11-14% alcohol. U.S. importer: Boisset America, St. Helena, Calif. (Nov. 22, 2018)

FOOD MATCH: Beef is its natural partner, but it would be fine also with cheese-based dishes or grilled chicken, duck, or for a Thanksgiving feast, roast turkey.

WHEN TO DRINK: The winery declares it ready to drink and recommends holding it for no more than seven years past the vintage.

This entry wine into Burgundy is well valued in the upper teens. Wine-Searcher.com calculates a $19 average U.S. retail.
