White Wine Saint-Romain "Sous la Velle" 2020 Domaine Henri & Gilles Buisson
The Henri & Gilles Buisson estate in Saint-Romain, certified organic since 2009, now works its entire vineyard biodynamically. The family name Buisson is intimately linked to the destiny of Saint-Romain, a wine-growing village since its origins. All of them, as far back as we can remember, have always worked the vines since 1758. It was Henri Buisson, a true pioneer, who bought 5 hectares of vines and thus wrote the first page of the family destiny, setting up as an independent vigneron in 1947, the date on which Saint-Romain obtained its AOC. The "Henri et Gilles Buisson" estate has been claiming this independence and freedom ever since, by practising a wine culture that is faithful to its deepest values. Franck and Frédérick Buisson, sons of Gilles and grandsons of Henri, took up the torch in 2008 and placed the family estate at the heart of progress.
This plot, known as "Sous La Velle", autrement is located under the village, is located exactly under Saint-Romain le Haut, at 370 metres on the hillside, and extends over 2 and a half hectares in the heart of the valley. This 60-year-old symbolic vineyard, which has largely contributed to the reputation of the appellation, is one of the two founding plots of Domaine Buisson. Planted on scree of Saint-Romain marl, the vines take root in the limestone and thus offer a beautiful minerality to the wine. This 2020 brings a magnificent balance, between chiselled minerality and the aromatic purity of Chardonnay. This natural freshness is magnified by the superb 2020 vintage, bringing concentration and length, with notes of honeysuckle, wild mint, citrus and lemongrass. The classy ageing on fine lees mixes with gourmet notes of brioche, almonds and hazelnuts.
