2015 Jacquesson Dizy Terres Rouge

This tiny 1.33-hectare plot, entirely planted with Pinot Noir in 1993, is the cradle of the 2015 Extra-Brut Premier Cru Dizy - Terres Rouges. Revealing aromas of spring flowers, herbs, toast, tobacco leaf, red berries and menthol, it's medium to full-bodied, tense and straight, structured and perfectly balanced, with a long, phenolic and chalky finish. This is an excellent, singular rendition of Pinot Noir, a combination of finesse and power. Disgorged in March 2023 with no dosage.

This is a pure pinot noir from a small part of a single vineyard in the village of Dizy, showing lots of framing from beautiful phenolics and wonderfully ripe fruit. Yet, it's driven and bright and well-integrated. It's full-bodied and rich, but fresh. This is one to pair with all sorts of food. No dosage. Drink or hold.

The 2015 Extra-Brut Dizy-Terres Rouges Premier Cru is bright, airy and nicely lifted. It’s an especially floral, mid-weight expression of Pinot Noir. Crushed flowers, dried herbs, spice, cedar and tobacco give the 2015 a strong aromatic presence. Although a bit light, the 2015 is very nicely delineated and also avoids the assertive vegetal notes that afflict so many wines in this vintage. Bottled with no dosage. Disgorged: March, 2023.
