  • EYE: The robe is in brilliant ruby color with garnet highlights. The depth of the hue indicates a good concentration, promising forthcoming complexity. The wine’s brightness reflects its youth and vitality. .
  • NOSE: It opens with a complex bouquet. The initial notes reveal ripe red fruit aromas such as cherry and raspberry, accompanied by hints of red currant. Upon aeration, floral nuances of violet emerge, enriched by subtle notes of undergrowth and mushrooms. A touch of sweet spices, like cinnamon and vanilla, indicates well-managed oak aging.
  • MOUTH: On the palate, the wine offers a direct and lively attack, with a beautiful acidity that perfectly balances the richness of the fruit. The tannins are fine and silky, providing an elegant structure without being aggressive. The red fruit aromas perceived on the nose reappear, complemented by deeper flavors of plum and blackberry. The minerality of the Beaune terroir is evident in a slight salinity on the finish. The length on the palate is remarkable, with an aromatic persistence that leaves a lasting and pleasant impression.

 

In short: The Beaune 1st Growth Aux Coucherias 2021 - Domaine Boris Champy stands out with its brilliant ruby color, complex nose with red fruit and undergrowth aromas, and balanced palate with silky tannins. This wine can be advantageously aged for 8 to 12 years, gaining more complexity and roundness over time.

Biodynamic Estate in the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune

 

The Domaine Boris Champy, based in Nantoux, Burgundy, tells a winemaking story marked by a commitment to environmental sustainability and oenological excellence. Founded in 1984 by Didier Montchovet, the estate was bought by Boris Champy in 2020, who followed the same philosophy initiated by Montchovet. Spanning nearly 13 hectares, this vineyard in the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune, certified organic and biodynamic (Demeter and Ecocert) since 1985, offers diverse appellations such as Pommard, Beaune 1er Cru "Aux Coucherias," and Hautes-Côtes de Beaune.

Boris Champy, a seasoned oenologist with experience at Maison Louis Latour (Beaune) and Clos des Lambrays (Morey-Saint-Denis), imparts a precise approach to terroir expression and demonstrates profound respect for nature. Prioritizing minimal viticultural practices, manual harvesting, and natural fermentations, the estate produces wines renowned for their finesse and unparalleled complexity.

The 2020 vintage attests to a neverending commitment to excellence, with special emphasis on grape maturity and precise winemaking practices. The final result is a range of fine, expressive, and authentic wines, characterized by the unique personality of each plot in the vineyard. The legacy of Didier Montchovet truly is in very capable hands.
