Coteaux Bourguignons Gamay Fin AOP 2019 1500ml

Wine Description for Coteaux Bourguignons Gamay Fin AOP 2019 1500ml by Boris Champy

Colour & Appearance

A deep, luminous ruby red of remarkable depth.

Nose

On the nose, an intense bouquet reveals crisp cherries and wild berry compote, complemented by noble notes of sous bois and a hint of blood orange. The high proportion of stems (75% whole bunches) lends the bouquet a fine, ripe herbal spice and hints of clove.

Palate

On the palate, the wine presents itself fresh, juicy and with a vibrant acidity structure. The dark fruit comes across as precise and is accompanied by a distinctive earthy spice. The tannins are characteristically Gamay – silky and perfectly rounded, making the wine remarkably drinkable and elegant.

Finish

A lingering, mouth-watering finale that invites you to take another sip – pure Burgundian drinking pleasure.

Terroir & Origin

Sourced from carefully tended parcels in the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune. The extremely dense planting of 10,000 vines per hectare ensures natural yield limitation and high extract levels.

Grape Variety & Vinification

Pure Gamay from old sélections massales. Aged for twelve months in old pièce and in large wooden vats following spontaneous fermentation in wooden vats.

Food Pairing Recommendations

Excellent with classic charcuterie and farmhouse bread, spicy grilled sausages or a vegetarian aubergine lasagne with Chaource cheese.

Special Features

The 1500ml magnum is the ideal format for this “Gamay Fin”, which bridges the gap between uncomplicated drinking pleasure and serious terroir wine.
