From the 2022 vintage, this Monthélie Premier Cru Clos des Champs Fulliot from Eric Boigelot is a wonderful expression of Burgundy's Côte de Beaune. Nestled between Volnay and Meursault on clay-limestone soils, this terroir gives the wine all the refinement, elegance, and freshness expected of great red Burgundies, structured by delicately woven tannins and built with great cellaring potential.
TASTING NOTES :
Nose: Subtle bouquet of small red berries and violet, enriched with delicate floral and spicy accents.
Palate: Seductive red hue with a fine, fresh, and elegant entry, revealing beautiful fruit purity backed by soft, balanced tannins.
SERVING & CELLARING :
Serving temperature: Serve between 15 and 17°C.
Serving advice: Aerate for half an hour before serving to allow its complex bouquet to fully open up.
Cellaring potential: Offers immediate drinking pleasure, though it will also evolve gracefully over a few years in the cellar.
Grape variety: Pinot Noir.
FOOD & WINE PAIRINGS :
Recommended pairings: Roast poultry with mushrooms, pan-seared duck breast, traditional œufs en meurette, mildly spiced dishes, or soft cheeses (Brillat-Savarin, lightly aged Époisses).
