Bouzeron
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 MAKING
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
With a light nose both lemony and floral, the 2020 Bouzeron offers on the palate notes of green apples, almonds well defined by a fresh and non-aggressive acidity. We clearly notice the richness of the vintage and the good maturity of the late picked grapes (first weeks of October). The balance between the roundness of the wine on the attack and the saline minerality on the finish, combined with some notes of wild herbs, allow our Bouzeron to once again express great quality of the terroirs from our 17 plots of Aligoté.
A wine with a lot of vibration and energy.
To drink now through to 2025.
