Domaine Dubois Bernard & Fils Clos Margot AOP Chorey-lès-Beaune
This wine is produced from a single plot from Clos Margot of approximately 0.75 hectares, situated close to and west of the village of Chorey-lès-Beaune. Vines have an average age of 35 years. Rather closed at the time of tasting with some redcurrant aromas, it is supple on the palate with good concentration, a velvety texture and long bitter cherry finish, which opens up in the glass. After a cold maceration, the wine was fermented with skins for three weeks followed by twelve months in barrel with 25% new oak.
Dubois Bernard & Fils Savigny-lès-Beaune Les Ratausses AOP
The Savigny-Les-Beaune appellation borders that of Chorey-lès-Beaune to the west, with Les Ratausses at the meeting point at its southern end. Situated on similar clay limestone soils, the vines have an average age of 50 years. Deeper in colour, it is more expressive than the Chorey with a nutty almond aroma. It is medium bodied with a bitter cherry finish and was produced in the same way as Chorey-lès-Beaune with no filtration or fining and so may leave a harmless deposit in the bottle over time.
Dubois Bernard & Fils Aloxe-Corton Les Brunettes AOP
Produced from 80-year-old vines cultivated at Les Brunettes. The quality of the terroir shows through with more intense and typical Pinot notes with redcurrants and blackcurrants. It has more weight on the palate, with a silky texture and a supple finish. In Bernard’s vineyards, one is never far from sight of the iconic Corton hill. Vineyards stretch out beneath it towards Chorey and Savigny to form the Aloxe-Corton appellation.
