Bourgogne Rouge from Vincent Dureuil, supple, organic, barrel aged Pinot Noir aged in 33% new oak for 18 months. Sweet, generous and accessible, with the fruit coming in part from Puligny and in part Premeaux. This is seriously good Burgundy for a veritable 'bargain', fine soft fruit, round supple texture and good fresh acidity, the nose has subtle hints of that lovely farmyard authenticity that makes Pinot and Burgundy so delicious. Bottled without fining or filtration.

From the village of Givry, one of the best known appelations in the Cote Chalonaise this stunning wine from Domaine Chanson is 100% Pinot Noir from soils of mixed limestone and clay.

Produced from old vines, 65+ years in age. Wisps of menthol and the sauvage are present on the liqueur-like aromas of dark cherry and raspberry along with a background nuance of earth. This is an excellent vintage that should drink well both young and with half-a-dozen years of age.
