Domaine A. & P. de Villaine Description
La Digoine is a site at the foot of a slope, known for centuries to provide the deep soil and growing conditions necessary for excellent red wine. Our vineyard here is planted in moderate-yield Pinot Noir. La Digoine can be drunk very young. Within two or three months of bottling, it demonstrates immediate appeal with red berry fruit and a balance of roundness, structure, and lenght on the palate.
Tasting Note: With its nose direct and serious, the Digoine give the impression of sobriety. On the palate, the frankness of the fruit enhanced by the tannins a little more present that those of La Fortune. These tannins, even if they concentrate the texture of the wine, they remain however, silky and give La Digoine, a saline sensation softening the wine and making it digest.
Wine Pairing: It goes well with red meat and any of a variety of cheeses, though soft cheeses like Camembert, Brie, and Vacherin should be avoided.
Burghound: 88 Points
A ripe and fresh nose combines plenty of earth and sauvage elements with those of mostly red berries and a hint of anise. There is slightly better density to the delicious and slightly finer medium weight flavors that possess a velvety mouthfeel, all wrapped in a lightly stony, youthfully austere and built-to-age finish. This is consistently one of the surest values at the Bourgogne level in all of Burgundy and the 2022 will only add to that track record.
