Description
Our Bouzeron comes from vines situated on the best slopes of the appellations. We have planted to Bouzeron the golden Aligoté doré grape, which gives lowers yield and more aromatic wines than its cousin, the Aligoté vert.
True to its varietal nature, our Bouzeron is a liveley, fruity wine, but it also has a finesse and roundness that spring from the essential nature of the terroir.
These qualities lend it great versatility. To best appreciate the freshness and fruit, our Bouzeron would be drunk young, within two or three years. To allow the wine to fully develop fullness and "fatness", age it for up to ten years.
Our Bouzeron should be served chilled, at about 54°F, as an apéritif, with seafood, or with a number of cheeses (goat cheese, Cantal, Beaufort, Parmesan, Roquefort, etc.Wine tasting
Upon being gathered and sorted by hand, the grapes go immediately into a pneumatic press. Pressing is slow and gentle in order to obtain claer, non-astringent juice.The musts ferment in tanks or oak tuns at controlled temperatures in order to preserve each wine's freshness and specific aromatic traits.
Wine tasting
The 2024 Bouzeron offers a fine, fresh and thirst-quenching expression of our 17 plots of Aligoté Doré
grapes spread across the whole of the village appellation.
When tasting it, you will find a frank, powerful nose, combining notes of chalk and flowers such as hawthorn
and acacias.
This wine, round due to the ripeness of its fruit and the white marl of its terroir, fresh due to its exposure and
location exclusively at the top of the slope, and dense due to the quality of the harvested fruit, vibrates with a
mineral energy and a thirst-quenching bitterness that creates a fierce desire to drink it, which is always a good
sign!
The roundness you may experience comes not only from the fruit's maturity of the Aligoté Doré grapes, which
fully benefited from this warmer weather than before, but also from the particularly distinctive presence of
marl on the upper slopes of Bouzeron.
