Bourgogne Hautes-Cotes de Nuits 2018

Symphorien DUFOULEUR founded his own wine house in 1848 and worked hard. In parallel with its development, DUFOULEUR acquired a number of outstanding vineyards on the Côte de Nuits, including a plot of land in Clos-Vougeot, which is still proudly owned by their family. Although the focus has always been on the marketed wine, in the 1930s Dufouleurs owned 15 hectares of vines, but they were split and some were sold. Today, Dufouleur Frères owns just over 5 hectares.

Pinot Noir has very aromatic profile, very fresh acidity and low level of quaite soft tannins. The nature of Pinot Noir wine is its flavors of red berries and cherry (red sour cherries in lighter wines and cooked black cherries in bold examples). This wine matures very exating, developing notes of berry jam, violets, leather, moss and mushrooms.
