Colour

Clean and bright, intense red color with very subtle reflections of bronze touches. Very nice to look at.

AROMA:

Great complexity and very good intensity. Aromatically it is a fantastic wine with touches of leather, black fruits, tea leaves and vanilla. A Pinot Noir with all its amplitude of aromas.

TASTE:

Very elegant on the palate, with an acidity and incredibly well structured tannins. We are talking about a wine that subtlety is not lost, but it persists in a robust and refined finish that makes you enjoy every sip. A wine that balances the senses.

Thanks to its subtlety and wine elegance, we advise marrying it with dishes of average gustatory potency, without much complexity. They are wines that perfectly marry bird dishes, such as a duck magret with cassis sauce, lightly roasted partridges, etc.

Domaine G. Roumier has been distinguished as one of the main domains of Burgundy. Always very well respected, it has risen to fame under the name of Christophe Roumier, which began in 1981. Apart from the infinitely small amount of Musigny made here (less than the value of a barrel), the star wine - the wine defined - for the domain is undoubtedly Bonnes Mares Grand Cru.

Bonnes Mares is a combination of two different plots of different soils, and Roumier combines both of its 1,60ha of this 16.24ha Grand Cru. The Grand Cru "Bonnes Mares" is one of the two great wines of the denomination Chambolle Musigny.



Located north of Chambolle, it is the neighbor of Clos de Tart Morey-Morey Saint Denis. Domaine Geroges Roumier has the same hectares with both types of soils.
The upper part of the slope "lands blanches", limestone lands is composed of fossils of "Ostrea Acuminata" and the lower part "Rouges lands" is made of a subsoil of clay and limestone with compact bass rocks (type of premeaux limestone).

He usually vintages them separately and then mixes them. What's the difference? The lands "Rouges lands" give power, spine, concentration. The wine of the "white earth" is more spiritual. From here we obtain delicacy, intensity, definition.

Wine needs time in the winery to evolve and show its moderate, powerful and elegant grandeur at the same time.
