Wine Region: Burgundy - France
Grape: Pinot Noir
Tasting notes:The 2020 Beaune 1er Cru Les Reversées bursts with aromas of peonies, violets, orange oil, Indian spices and plummy fruit. Medium to full-bodied, supple and perfumed, it's ample, suave and seamless, with melting tannins and a long, perfumed finish. As usual, Bouley retained large percentages of whole bunches to bring additional aromatic lift to this sandy site; and as usual, it's the domaine's premier cru that drinks best young. William Kelley
About the winery:
Jean-Marc Bouley creates his domain in 1974 to which he will add, ten years later, his father's one. With his son, Thomas, they combine traditional methods and modern technology to produce concentrated wines, with good fruit, elegance and roundness. From 2012, Thomas runs the vineyard and intends to place his wines among the best of Volnay.
