Jean-Claude Boisset Santenay 1er Cru Grand Clos Rousseau from France, Burgundy, Santenay by Jean-Claude Boisset Nuits St Georges (6 x 75 cl)

Jean-Claude Boisset Savigny Les Beaune 1er Cru La Dominode from France, Burgundy, Savigny-les-Beaune by Jean-Claude Boisset Nuits St Georges (6 x 75 cl)

This wine is aged in the cask for sixteen to eighteen months, using a fairly low proportion of new casks finally being bottled with a very light filtration. 100% Pinot Noir it is displaying a fine dark colour with ruby reflections. The aromas of spices and cherries develop on the palate of this a silky structured red wine finishing with a mellow woodiness. Morey-Saint-Denis, nestling in its enclave between Gevrey-Chambertin and Chambolle-Musigny, produces no fewer than five Grands Crus. Forming the northern boundary of the commune, 'Clos de la Roche' takes its name from a rock used by the Celts for their rites. Adjoining 'Latricieres-Chambertin', Clos de la Roche produces Morey's most robust wines. The soil here is so pebbly and hard to work that it used to exhaust even the toughest growers. These hard brown pieces of limestone make for a very firm wine, but one with the best possible ageing potential. Today, 'Clos de la Roche' covers some 16 hectares. (6 x 75 cl)

Jean-Claude Boisset Montagny 1er Cru AC from France, Burgundy, Montagny by Jean-Claude Boisset Nuits St Georges (6 x 75 cl)

Jean-Claude Boisset Mercurey 1er Cru Les Velley from France, Burgundy, Mercurey by Jean-Claude Boisset Nuits St Georges (6 x 75 cl)

Les Chaponnieres terroir consists of clay and limestone pebbles, with iron oxides and adds a red hue to the ground and structure to the wines. The result is a well-sustained red with ruby reflections. 100% Pinot Noir, it has a powerful nose displaying with very ripe black berry aromas. The mouth is both structured and fleshy through to the lengthy finish. (6 x 75 cl)

A Pinot Noir showing a fairly deep red colour with garnet reflections that has benefitted from 15 months in Oak casks without racking. Finally, it is bottled by means of gravity, without fining or filtration. The result is a discreet nose showing woodiness with dark berry aromas. Great care was taken in both the vineyard and winery while it is evident in its density and silky tannins that lend this wine an exquisite elegance on the finish. (6 x 75 cl)
