Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune "Bignon 421" 2021 Domaine Boris Champy
Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune "Bignon 421" 2021 by Domaine Boris Champy is a French red wine that encapsulates the essence of Hautes-Côtes de Beaune. Originating from the prestigious "En Bignon" parcel in Bouze les Beaune, its label bears the name of the site and its altitude: 421 meters. The parcel's red, clayey soil not only reflects the unique terroir but also the Burgundian tradition that associates such soils with wines of extraordinary quality. The high altitude lends the vineyard an unparalleled freshness, creating an ideal environment for producing refined wines of extraordinary complexity.
In the vineyard, the approach follows a traditional methodology with low vine density per hectare, ranging from 8,000 to 10,000 vines, and Guyot pruning, with some vines trained in double Guyot. Harvesting is strictly manual, ensuring the selection of the best grapes and perfect ripeness before picking.
In the cellar, meticulous attention is paid to quality. During vinification, gentle extraction is employed with 50% destemmed grapes, followed by fermentation in oak vats, imparting extraordinary structure and complexity to the wine. Aging is done judiciously, averaging 12 months, with 25% in new 500-liter barrels, allowing the wine to slowly develop its aromatic nuances and achieve perfect integration of fruit, spices, and wood.
At the tasting, Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune "Bignon 421" 2021 offers a unique sensory experience. On the nose, fresh red fruit notes harmoniously blend with a light spiciness typical of quality Pinot Noir. On the palate, the wine distinguishes itself with its freshness, smoothness, and perfect balance, delivering an explosion of complex and enveloping flavors. It is a true expression of Burgundy's elegance and refinement, destined to delight the most discerning palates and create unforgettable moments.
Certified organic and ecological, this wine is not only a tribute to the terroir and Burgundian winemaking tradition but also a testament to Domaine Boris Champy's passion and commitment to creating wines of extraordinary quality and authenticity.
