Red Burgundy "En Montre-Cul" 2021 | Wine from Domaine Chapuis Frères

Burgundy Red Wine En Montrecul 2021 Domaine Chapuis Frères

Two brothers (Romain and Jean-Guillaume) from a family of vigneron Aloxe Corton, passionate about gastronomy, wine and terroir, decided to combine their skills in order to offer the wines they had dreamed of for a long time. They founded la maison Chapuis Frères in the heart of the village of Pommard in 2009.

This 2021 Bourgogne En Montreculfrom Domaine Chapuis Frères comes from a climate located on the southern side of a hill west of Dijon. "Montrecul" is one of the very few Climats with a regional designation authorized to mention its name on the label. It proudly embodies the rebirth of Dijon's historic Climats.
The vines are planted on a hillside exposed to the east, between 257 m and 307 m above sea level, in the terminal extension to the north of the wine-growing Côte de Nuits. The slope slopes down to the city, with a slope of 13%, probably at the origin of the name "Montrecul", which would refer to a steeply sloping terrain. On tasting, a beautiful garnet red colour with purple reflections, a nose of notes of blackcurrant, rose, peony, pepper and fig and finally a dense and robust palate with crisp tannins and a good length for a full and greedy sensation
