Genot Boulanger Bourgogne Rouge 2021
Vintage Character
The 2021 Bourgogne Rouge is regional Pinot Noir made in an unusually cool year. April frost curtailed parts of Burgundy's crop, and rain from late June through early August brought disease pressure and a demanding canopy season. A dry mid-August spell and a northerly breeze then supported gradual ripening, with still-wine picking back in September rather than on the very early 2020 timetable. The grapes come from Les Noeuds on the Pommard plain, where deep clay is crossed by a limestone seam. That clay-grounded fruit does not turn heavy in 2021, because modest ripeness and acidity give a poised, savoury Burgundy with a clear fruit line.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
Although the label is regional, the estate describes this old-vine wine as deeper and more dark-fruited than a simple Bourgogne. Black cherry and blackberry are the markers, with brighter red-fruit edges, violet and clove from the cooler vintage, and a less massive palate. Supple, enveloping tannins are part of the Les Noeuds character, and a fresh finish keeps them agile, at 13% alcohol. Try roast chicken with herbs, chargrilled mushrooms or pork loin with lentils. These pairings meet the wine's earthy undertone without drowning its cool-year detail.
Winery Background
Génot-Boulanger's Burgundy holdings grew from a Meursault estate established in 1974 by Charles-Henri and Marie Génot-Boulanger. The Les Noeuds vines were planted in the 1960s, and the winery's technical sheet identifies them as a single Pommard-plain parcel rather than a blend from several villages. The vineyards have been organically certified since 2018. The Pinot Noir is hand-harvested and fully destemmed, then fermented with indigenous yeasts for roughly two to three weeks. Gentle pumping over, a year in oak and further rest in stainless steel preserve the site's character, and the wine is bottled unfiltered, keeping its dark fruit and silkiness.
