- This red Burgundy is a beautifully structured and timeless wine. It boasts delightful aromas of cherry and raspberry, which gracefully introduce a silky, fleshy palate offering the flavours of wild strawberry. The experience is rounded off with a firm tannic finish, leaving a lasting impression.
Harvested manually, the grapes were carefully sorted before a traditional Burgundian vinification. The grapes were destemmed and fermented in open vats using natural yeasts. The wine underwent pigeage (punching down the cap) or pumping over once daily to extract the desired colour, flavour and fine tannins. Ageing took place for 14 months in French oak, of which 30% was new and underwent slow malolactic conversion. The wine was bottled by gravity without fining or filtration.
A well-structured and classic red Burgundy. Aromas of cherry and raspberry lead to a silky, fleshy palate of wild strawberry enveloped in firm tannins on the finish.

Winery | Les Bressandes is a Premier Cru vineyard situated to the north of Beaune. Domaine Albert Morot cultivates 1.27 hectares and the average age of the vines is 50. Planted at a density of 10,000 vines per hectare, these old vines yield just 23 to 25 hectolitres per hectare. An annual green harvest controls yields and ensures maximum flavour concentration in the fruit. The soil is predominantly limestone mixed with marl. The vineyards are certified organic; the vines are cultivated with the utmost respect for the environment, and biodiversity is encouraged. The use of artificial pesticides, herbicides and fungicides is strictly prohibited. Many biodynamic practices are also employed. |
