When it comes to Pinot Noir, France’s Burgundy steals the spotlight. But look beyond this storied (and pricey) district, and you’ll find top-class Pinot Noir tucked away in France’s lesser-known regions.
Case in point: this silky Pinot Noir from the Languedoc. It’s crafted by fourth-generation winemaker Vianney Castan, whose family vineyards lie at the foothills of the Pyrenees. The sloping vineyards allow grapes to bask in sunshine, while the Mediterranean climate provides a long, warm growing season. Both conditions help grapes ripen to perfection and develop vibrant, concentrated flavors.
Made with the best from Vianney’s superb 2021 harvest, Méritoire overflows with ripe raspberry and red currant characters. Judging from the name (“praiseworthy” in French), you’re in for a bevy of compliments from guests—especially if you serve this velvety beauty with roasted turkey or salmon.
To ensure top quality, Vianney crafts his Pinot Noir in tiny batches. Secure your share today.
