2023 Domaine Benoit Badoz "Dédicace à Pierre" Pinot Noir is a refined Jura red from Côtes du Jura crafted by the historic estate Domaine Benoit Badoz. This cuvée is made from 100% Pinot Noir and produced organically, honouring Pierre Badoz, the founder of the family domaine.
The grapes come from limestone-rich slopes around the Les Roussots vineyard, where the Jura terroir gives Pinot Noir a distinctive balance of freshness, minerality and aromatic lift. The wine is aged in French oak barrels in traditional underground stone cellars, adding structure and complexity while preserving the purity of fruit.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, Jura Pinot Noir is something we love recommending to customers who enjoy Burgundy-style elegance but want to discover lesser-known regions. The 2023 "Dédicace à Pierre" combines the finesse of Pinot Noir with the distinctive character of Jura terroir. It pairs beautifully with duck, roast chicken, mushroom dishes or charcuterie, and can develop additional complexity with several years of cellaring.
