The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine Tucked away in the folds of the Côte de Beaune, the Domaine Philippe Germain lives happily hidden away. Systematically refusing the limelight, going so far as to say no to the finest restaurateurs who would like to offer its wines on the menu, this model - and somewhat rebellious - estate is a perfect success story.
Wine The 2022 red Burgundy Hautes Côtes de Beaune Pinot Noir perfectly expresses ripe Pinot, with beautiful morello cherry and black cherry notes on the nose. The palate is supple, dense, and intensely fruity, supported by a restrained aging process that makes it accessible today. Enjoy with charcuterie, grilled meats or roast poultry. Rated 92/100 by the Selection Committee.
