Village Pinot Noir from Auxey-Duresses's mixed-slope vineyards. Dark cherry, iron, forest floor and a rustic earthiness that characterises this appellation's reds; medium-bodied with firm tannins and food-demanding structure.

complement
The wine's fresh acidity and earthy fruit are an excellent match for rabbit's delicate, slightly gamey flavour with mustard.
