La Digoine lies at the foot of a slope, where deeper soils have supported a longstanding reputation for red-wine production. The domaine planted moderate-yielding Pinot Noir selections here to capture the site’s distinctive character. Although labelled under the regional Bourgogne Côte Chalonnaise appellation, this is a wine with a clear vineyard identity and the capacity to develop in bottle. The 2024 combines fleshy fruit with discreet aromatic elegance, silky tannins and a lively, almost saline finish.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExpect blackcurrant, crushed strawberry and cherry, with violet, anise and subtle earthy notes adding complexity. The domaine describes a supple yet dynamic palate, balancing fruit depth with fine texture and energy. Allen Meadows awarded the wine an early assessment of 86–89 Points in Burghound, together with Outstanding and Top Value designations. His note highlights red and dark currant, floral detail and generous medium-bodied flavours, while drawing attention to a dusty, moderately austere finish that warrants patience. This combination of appealing fruit and youthful structure makes the 2024 an interesting bottle to follow as its tannins soften and its aromas unfold.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBen’s Recommendation:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat appeals to me about La Digoine is the opportunity to explore a specific Burgundian vineyard through a regional appellation. The 2024’s fruit, silky texture and underlying firmness should reward a little time in the cellar, particularly for someone who enjoys savoury, understated Pinot Noir. I would aim to enjoy it from approximately 2028 through 2034, assuming good storage, allowing the younger bottles time to settle before following their development. If opening earlier, give it around 45–60 minutes of air and use a generous Burgundy glass. Roast duck, pork with mushrooms, guinea fowl or a lentil and mushroom dish would all complement its character. It is a thoughtful choice for building a cellar around distinctive Côte Chalonnaise wines.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"pipSecContent_topSection\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eInfo\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"846\" style=\"height: 152px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCOUNTRY\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePRODUCER\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDomaine De Villaine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVARIETY\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePinot Noir\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSTYLE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVINTAGE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2024\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSIZE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Domaine De Villaine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67903158321467,"sku":"VIBDIG24F6","price":165.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/6779\/7699\/files\/2024_Domaine_de_Villaine_Bourgogne_Cote_Chalonnaise_La_Digoine_Rouge.jpg?v=1793851731","url":"https:\/\/winemore.com.au\/products\/2024-domaine-de-villaine-bourgogne-cote-chalonnaise-la-digoine-rouge","provider":"Wine More Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
