The Bougros vineyard is the most western of the seven Grand Cru climats. Samuel chooses to vinify the grapes in a 50/50 blend of barrel aged and stainless steel, the resulting wine is superbly balanced wine with signature acidity, evident minerality and saline notes. Sitting atop this structure lies a wealth of apple, lime, ginger, citrus and even starbursts! A treat, this will age gracefully for years to come. 5-15 years.

“50% raised in 500 litre barrels. This has incredible concentration and weight with bold citrus and pineapple and pear fruit with amazing vitality and intensity. There’s a spicy, mineral character. Really powerful with a slight hint of cabbage and gunsmoke adding complexity. This is a striking wine showing real weight.” 97/100 (Jamie Goode).
