{"product_id":"bourgogne-les-graviers-2023","title":"Bourgogne 'Les Graviers' 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe grapes for this wine come from a plot located in Chambolle-Musigny; the name \"Les Graviers\" refers to the soil, which is primarily composed of limestone gravel. You might be thinking, \"Alright, but how is that supposed to convince me?\" 🤣\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFair enough. Here is the simple explanation: thanks to its high porosity and ability to store solar heat, gravel (especially when associated with limestone) produces wines that are more refined and concentrated, with beautifully polished tannins.\u003cbr\u003eBottom line: This isn't just a Bourgogne; it’s built to punch way above its weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the nose, the wine is fresh and \"crunchy,\" dominated by vibrant red berries like wild raspberry and cherry. With a little air (as 2023 is still a young vintage), it releases delicate floral notes of violet and a hint of forest floor. The classic hallmarks of fine Pinot Noir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe palate focuses on fruit purity and tension rather than oak power or heavy structure; it is bright rather than dark. Wild strawberries, red cherries, violets, and rose petals mingle on the attack, while a stony minerality tightens the mid-palate, giving the wine a sense of order and poise. Since Les Graviers is unfiltered, there is a very pleasant \"chewiness\" and substance to the texture. As we often say of a truly soul-stirring bottle: \"There is a lot of wine in this wine.\" While the wine is young and spirited (fougueux), the tannic structure never overpowers the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cuvée is a fantastic way to discover a rising, yet humble, star of the prestigious Côte de Nuits.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eBurgundy, Côtes de Nuits\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrape:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 100% Pinot Noir\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlcohol:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e13%\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTotal SO2:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30 mg\/L\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eService:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18°C \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTech facts:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe plot “Les Graviers’ is located on the lower part of Chambolle-Musigny’s vineyards, a stone’s throw away from the iconic Clos Vougeot. 40 years old vineyards of 17.29 acres at 246m altitude.
