Bourgogne Rouge 2022 | Wine from Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard

The Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard, located in the heart of Burgundy, is renowned for its exceptional wines. Respectful of tradition, the estate applies classic winemaking methods to enhance the richness of its terroirs. Each wine thus fully expresses the unique characteristics of its place of origin. The estate's vines, old and deeply rooted, give the wines unparalleled depth and complexity.

The Bourgogne Rouge 2022 from Domaine Fontaine-Gagnard comes from vines located in the lieux-dits La Platière in Chassagne and Les Longbois in Volnay. This red wine is the result of a harvest from a particularly sunny vintage, thus favoring a fruity and round wine profile. The clay-limestone soil, enriched with marl, contributes to the wine's finesse and structure.

The winemaking methods remain faithful to the Burgundian tradition with fermentation using indigenous yeasts and aging for 12 to 18 months in oak barrels. These processes ensure an authentic expression of the terroir and give the wine deep aromas, supported by beautiful complexity.

The Bourgogne Rouge 2022 offers a brilliant ruby red color. On the nose, intense aromas of small red fruits like cherry and raspberry mingle with subtle notes of sweet spices and undergrowth. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, balanced, with supple tannins supporting a fruity and indulgent core. The finish is long, leaving a silky impression.

This wine pairs wonderfully with grilled red meats, roasted poultry, or even stews like beef bourguignon. It also goes very well with aged cheeses such as Comté or Brie de Meaux.
