Boris Champy Bourgogne Haute Cotes de Beaune Altitude 2022

$59.99
This wine results from the blending of 2 plots: « En Bignon » (clay soil on hard limestone) and « Le Clou» (white chalky soil, significant gravelling on yellow marl) from Nantoux. The complexity and diversity of the different plots is expressed through the wine, which reveals the potential of the Hautes Cotes and the impact of altitude on the wine, which is why the “cuvée” is named after it.

The lightweight champion of red Burgundy. Fragrant nose of tiny red berries, wild blackberries and summer flowers, but also meaty, peppery and tobacco leaf aromas. Very elegant and silky on the focused palate that’s right on the edge of light- to medium-bodied. Amazing concentration and length for this weight category. A cuvee of pinot noirs from the various high-altitude sites of this domaine. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Unfiltered
