Product Description
From the northern edge of Nuits-Saint-Georges, where the terroir borders Vosne-Romanée, the Domaine de la Commaraine Aux Bousselots 2023 epitomizes the elegant yet powerful style of this Premier Cru climat. Named for its undulating ("bosseler") terrain, this vineyard's sandy clay-limestone soils yield Pinot Noir of remarkable depth and finesse.
Tasting Profile
A luminous ruby red hue introduces an aromatic bouquet of vibrant red cherries, crushed strawberries, and mandarin zest, layered with subtle truffle and spice notes. The palate is supple yet structured, offering flavors of cherry flesh and ripe raspberry, framed by velvety tannins and a briny mineral finish that lingers with harmonious balance.
