Domaine Michel Bouzereau
The Bouzereau family has been living in Meursault for seven generations to cultivate vines there. Over the years and thanks to his work, Michel enlarged the vineyard inherited from his father. Jean-Baptiste, his son, joined him on the estate twenty years later: he learned the trade at his side for ten years and together they acquired some prestigious plots. In 1999, Michel left it to Jean-Baptiste to manage the family property of 10.5 hectares with the same passion. In 2008, always keen to improve the quality of the wines, he decided to build a new structure and, since the 2009 harvest, the entire farm is located at 5, rue Robert Thénard, still in the center of the village of Meursault.
Description
"The 2020 Puligny-Montrachet Les Champs Gains 1er Cru is tightly wound on the nose with Golden Delicious, flint and chalk dust aromas, gaining intensity in the glass. The palate is well balanced, quite sapid, a Puligny that gets the saliva flowing with quite an intense and persistent finish. A boisterous and engaging Puligny that should cellar well for a decade or more." Neal Martin
Food Pairing
Pairs well with turbot with mushrooms or a Bresse chicken.
