Description

Domaine Chanson Beaune Bastion 1er Cru 2013/2014

Details of production:

The Premiers Crus vineyards of Domaine Chanson are aged in casks in the Bastion cellars.This cuvée is a blend of grapes sourced from selected plots among the Premiers Crus of the Domaine - Beaune Clos du Roi, Beaune Clos des Marconnets, Beaune Bressandes, Beaune Teurons, Beaune Champimonts, Beaune Clos des Mouches and Beaune Clos des Fèves Monopole, all of which have a mix of clay and limestone soils. This association of the different terroirs of Beaune Premiers Crus, and among them the flagships of Chanson, give the wine a unique character and texture. Beaune Bastion 1er cru is aged in French oak for 18 months. After a very cold winter and a cool and humid spring, the weather became really fine and warm end of July. The sunny weather and the warm temperatures engendered a slow ripening process of the grapes. The harvest commenced mid September under a bright sunshine. The combination of all those climatic factors associated with meticulous vinifications have produced wines with very pure aromas and a crunchy texture. Aging in oak casks during 15 months.

Tasting notes:

Bright ruby colour. Floral fragrances (violet) and red current mixed with toasted bread. Dense and complex. Elegant and silky texture. Subtle oak note. Generous aftertaste.

How to serve:

Red meat, grilled or with a sauce. Cheese selections, particularly local cheeses like Epoisses, Citeaux and Langres.
