Clos des Fous Pinot Noir 'Subsollum' 2018
The ambitious project that led to this wine can be summed by the quest for extreme terroirs where you could plant vines on Chilean soil, despite unfavourable expert opinions.
This quest beginning in 2007 was pure madness to some, and certainly proved challenging for its four founding partners, but what a success it turned out to be.
This Pinot Noir is a case in point: Magnificent fruit complete with mineral and spice notes. A bouquet of delicate red fruits and wet forest aromas. Charming and distinguished, this gentle wine offers a persistent mouthfeel. It has a fresh acidity that shows a great potential on the smooth and elegant finish.
Try this wine with wild mushroom risotto, honey-balsamic glazed salmon, or fennel-garlic pork roast.
