La Belle Angele Pinot Noir

“My name is Belle Angele and I come from France. I am the muse for many early 20th century painters and artists.”

She was carefree and adventurous, she had elegance and charisma and a touch of mischievousness! A little bit of what the French call ‘joie de vivre’ – the art of living.

With labels designed celebrating those roaring 20s in mind and art deco style labels the Belle Angele range is all about full bodied reds with delicious fruit flavours, delectable whites and a fresh, fruity Rosé.

This is the 2021 vintage Pinot Noir and it’s a great entry level French Pinot at a good price. It’s supple, smooth and full of juicy fruit flavours. A great match with duck or lamb although this lighter style Pinot will work well with fish too.

Scoring 91/100 with Master of Wine Bob Campbell who said “Light, fresh pinot noir with gentle cherry, liquorice, plum and subtle herb flavours. Perhaps a bit simple but with an attractive and accessible silken texture.”
