Gilles Remoriquet is not a winemaker who rests on his laurels, forever looking for ways to improve his wines. Most recently he has been to the Jura to see a specialist about selecting the right blend of manure and has bought a second sorting table which eliminates under-ripe berries by flotation. The attention to detail flows right the way through from his vineyards to the winery.
Aux Bousselots is a Premier Cru classified vineyard located at the bottom of the Côte D'Or slope where a southeasterly aspect ensure the vines receive the morning sunshine and ripen well in Burgundy's cool climate. The result is a well-balanced wine with ample acidity to support the rich fruit flavors, further softened by the rich soil.
An earthy and well-developed wine that has a lovely aroma of red cherries, cedar, spices, cigar and faint oak. The palate has sour cherries, tobacco and gamey notes on the light-bodied palate. A very complex sip that lingers well with some acidity still present. Despite the age it is still a baby and could be aged for a few more years. If opening now, we recommend decanting to get the most out of the wine.
Try with game.
