J.C. Boisset Hautes Cotes de Nuits rouge '19

Cote-d'Or, Burgundy, France.....
The first distinctive feature of this vineyard is that it is 50 years old and naturally produces few grapes.
Surrounded by walls, the grapes always reach full maturity. Furthermore, the vines produce very small bunches of Pinot Noir grapes with very thick skins, which guarantees superb concentration of the wine that is made with them.
Vine growing techniques are also very particular: limited yields due to severe de-budding, green harvest if needed, working of the soil, no or infrequent use of fertilizers, environmentally friendly pest management, respecting beneficial wildlife. Lightly smoky from wood aging this wine has ripe, juicy red-fruit flavors. While it is young, it is already delicious and packed with freshness and fruitiness. Drink from late 2021. Organic.
