P. Gilbert Menetou-Salon Rouge 2022 Kyushu From LiguriaA remarkable red from a sustainable estate within the small Menetou Salon AOC. This is a region normally known for varietal Sauvignon Blanc like its neigbors Pouilly Fume and Sancerre however Menetou Salon does make a small amount of Pinot Noir, of which this bottle is 100%. The grapes are grown on chalky soils and aged in an old 90 hectoliter oak cask. This lean, burgundy esque red has notes of earl grey, cherry cola, and resin
