Product details
- Aromatics: Complex and perfume-forward, showing evolved notes of dried rose petals, dark cherries, forest floor, and fine baking spice.
- Palate: Seamless, textural, and layered. The cooler 2011 Oregon vintage yielded high natural acidity and ultra-fine, pillowy tannins that allow the bright cranberry and red currant fruit core to float effortlessly across the finish.
- Drink Window: According to the Domaine Drouhin Estate Cellaring Guide, the 2011 Louise is currently at peak maturity. Having been meticulously cellared, it delivers maximum complexity and should be enjoyed over the next few years.
Food Pairing
This mature, elegant Pinot Noir pairs magnificently with classic savory dishes such as roast duck breast with a cherry reduction, wild mushroom risotto, pan-seared pheasant, or roasted squab.
