". . . from several plots lying on lower hillsides aronud Nuits-Saint-Georges - issuing from a slight slope, deep brown soils with silt and clay featuring high chert content, and average vine age of 20 years . . . . This Bourgogne is raised partly in once- and twice-used barrels. Our Bourgogne has a medium intensity of color, with a subtle purple when young, then becoming orange-red and ruby after a few years of bottle aging. Aromas of black currants and cherries are quite marked in his youth, then later there is more fur and humus and mixed candied fruit." Domaine-Daniel-Rion.com |
