Phillipe Colin Bourgogne – Fall In Love with a Sporty Old World Pinot Noir
Some nights only a clean Burgundy will do. 2006 Philippe Colin Bourgogne is a light pinot noir. It is a beautiful color – light red but deep and real. You can see your hand through the glass. The nose is bracing and positive. The taste is acidic — very evergreen. The tartness and balance are specifically Burgundian. This wine will make your mouth pucker just enough to be enjoyable. After two glasses, you wonder if you could manage a verse of Je ne regrette rien. Later, you will consider giving it all up to play the musical saw on a street lined with sycamores. My friend calls this wine “racy.” I think he is right – it is a lean, fast wine mercifully free of wet fruit and soft flowers.
Dedalus will hand over a bottle of this sporty, coniferous wine for $24.95.
