Bourgogne Rouge 2017 Domaine Jean-Philippe Fichet
The Bourgogne Rouge 2017 from Domaine Jean-Philippe Fichet is a pure expression of Burgundy’s elegance and the precision that defines this respected Côte de Beaune estate. Although classified as a regional appellation, this wine reflects the same attention to detail and respect for terroir found throughout Fichet’s range.
Jean-Philippe Fichet is recognized as one of the talented growers of the Côte de Beaune, known for producing wines of purity, balance and remarkable finesse. His approach combines careful vineyard management with precise winemaking, allowing each parcel to express its own character without excessive intervention.
This Bourgogne Rouge is made from 100% Pinot Noir, sourced from two distinct vineyards with complementary profiles. The Les Lameroses parcel is planted on rich, dark silty soils, providing depth, aromatic intensity and structure. The Les Dressolles vineyard features deeper, slightly sandy soils, bringing elegance, freshness and consistency to the final blend.
The combination of these two terroirs creates a harmonious Pinot Noir with an expressive fruit profile, refined tannins and a delicate mineral backbone. The 2017 vintage was particularly successful in Burgundy, producing wines that combine ripe fruit, freshness and immediate accessibility.
The wine displays a bright ruby-red colour. On the nose, it reveals charming aromas of red berries, cherry and raspberry, complemented by subtle floral notes, gentle spices and delicate earthy nuances typical of Burgundy Pinot Noir.
On the palate, it is generous and smooth, with a refined texture and beautifully integrated tannins. The lively acidity provides freshness and balance, while the finish is clean, elegant and pleasantly persistent, leaving a refined impression of red fruit and minerality.
A wonderful choice for those looking to discover the character of Burgundy through an authentic and accessible Pinot Noir. It pairs beautifully with charcuterie, roasted poultry, veal, mushroom dishes, terrines and soft-ripened cheeses.
