It’s from vineyards in the higher, cooler slopes of the Languedoc. A seductively silky red with spicy raspberry richness.Pinot Noir is a prima donna when it comes to climate, liking it neither too hot nor too cold – yet it’s worth persevering to create a silky, pure fruit red like this. The skill is in choosing the right vineyard, which isn’t so tricky for winemaker Mark Hoddy, who lives in the area and knows exactly where to find top-quality Pinot Noir grapes. On the cool, higher slopes of the region, often close to the coast. There warm sunny days are tempered by cooling breezes that help retain freshness, delicacy and finesse. You’ll find all this, plus cherry and raspberry ripeness, and gentle, toasty spice from a little ageing in Burgundian oak barrels. A great red with pan-fried duck, roast lamb or mushroom risotto.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Laithwaites Direct Wines HK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43989522743407,"sku":"1419724","price":229.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0633\/9588\/9263\/files\/1419724.jpg?v=1769159546","url":"https:\/\/www.directwines.com.hk\/products\/le-secret-des-etoiles-pinot-noir-2024","provider":"Laithwaites Direct Wines HK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
