Le Jardin de Charlotte Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2007

Le Jardin is what run-of-the-mill Pinot Noir should be. Bright cranberry and cherry fruits with an intriguing hint of tomato flower on the nose. It reminds me of my dad’s failed attempts at growing a vegetables in the northwest bay windows of the kitchen of my parent’s house, where the only thing that would ever really grow were the pies they bought at the farmer’s market and baked in the oven while they argued about
why the vegetables in the window didn’t grow.

A bottle of Le Jardin might have smoothed out many rough spots in both their marriage and my childhood.
