Domaine du Pélican Trois Cépages 2020

Domaine du Pélican is owned by Burgundy's great Marquis d'Angerville, who have been producing wines of precision and purity with a more Burgundian characteristic than most wines you'd find in the Jura. Domaine du Pélican Trois Cépages opens with an inviting nose of ripe red fruits with subtle alpine herb notes. The palate is sensual and sumptuous but bright with creamy griotte cherry fruit and fresh crushed herbs. Svelte and ripe but vivid and with a salty and sapid element. More curvaceous and generous than usual without losing that translucent jewel like fruit. A beauty!

"Light, bright crimson. Juicy and lively with both red and dark-red fruit. Pure and with a light dusting of stoniness. This is a wine that draws you in with its pretty and vibrant fruit and then holds you captive with freshness, super-fine tannins and great length. Charming but not in the least insubstantial. Delicate and intense at the same time. A wine of real beauty." 17.5 Pts, Jancis Robinson MW
