Tonight’s Podmas journey stays in France with Latitude 44, a smooth and expressive French Pinot Noir labeled Vin de France. This wine is round and well-structured, with soft tannins leading to a smooth, lingering finish. In the glass, it offers a harmonious blend of red and dark fruit flavors, accented by a subtle hint of spice that adds depth without overpowering its elegance.
Pinot Noir is one of the world’s oldest grape varieties, famously rooted in Burgundy. The Vin de France designation, introduced in 2009, allows winemakers greater freedom to source grapes from across France, blending different terroirs into unique expressions of the varietal. Latitude 44 embraces that flexibility, delivering a balanced, approachable Pinot Noir that honors French tradition while remaining accessible.
This wine pairs beautifully with roast chicken, duck, salmon, mushroom dishes, soft cheeses like Brie or goat cheese, and pasta with light sauces such as pesto or primavera.
