The 2021 Jean Tardy Côte de Nuits-Villages is a classic Pinot Noir from Burgundy's renowned Côte de Nuits, produced by Domaine Jean Tardy. Sourced from village-level vineyards in one of the world's most celebrated Pinot Noir regions, it offers expressive aromas of red cherry, wild strawberry and raspberry, complemented by subtle floral notes, spice and hints of forest floor.
On the palate, it is elegant and beautifully structured, with bright acidity supporting flavours of red berries, sour cherry and delicate savoury nuances. Fine-grained tannins provide balance and length, while the texture remains silky and refined through to a long, dry finish with freshness and Burgundian finesse.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Côte de Nuits-Villages for those seeking authentic Burgundy character with both charm and complexity. Enjoy now with a short decant or cellar over the next 6–8 years as additional layers of character emerge. Pairs beautifully with roast duck, pork loin, mushroom risotto, charcuterie and soft-ripened cheeses.
