Viniou Reviews
The 1988 Nuits-Saint-Georges "Cuvée Roux" from La Côte de Nuits in Burgundy is a classic expression of Pinot Noir. This wine showcases the unique terroir of the region, characterized by its limestone-rich soils and a continental climate, offering the perfect conditions for elegant and complex Pinot Noir. The 1988 vintage is renowned for its remarkable aging potential, and this wine benefits from traditional vinification techniques, preserving its depth and character. Burgundy's Côte de Nuits, known for its prestigious appellations and rich viticultural history, adds further prestige. Although information about "Castle R" is limited, Burgundy's strong reputation ensures quality and craftsmanship.
For food pairing, aim to highlight the wine’s savoury and earthy nuances with dishes such as roast duck with a cherry glaze, mushroom risotto, or beef bourguignon. Regional dishes like coq au vin or escargots de Bourgogne would also complement this wine beautifully, enhancing its complex layers and soft tannins.
To enjoy this wine to its fullest, serve it at a temperature of around 16-18°C (60-64°F). Decanting for about an hour would allow the wine to breathe and open up its bouquet. Start your tasting by observing its clear ruby colour, then take in the aromas of red fruits, earth, and subtle spices. On the palate, expect a harmonious balance of fruit, acidity, and velvety tannins.
