Bouchard Père & Fils - Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Cailles 1er Cru Domaine 2008
Rating: Robert Parker 91/100, Gault Millau 18.5/20 ( Coup de Coeur), RVF 17/20
“The structure of this Nuits, with its firm, dense texture and the finesse of the Bouchard style—free from any artificial oak—results in a sublime cuvée. Violet and cassis, followed by crisp fruit, are all present for our greatest pleasure.” (Les Meilleurs Vins de France 2011 - Gault Millau). Undoubtedly a great wine!

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2023 guide): 4* Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)
About the estate:
From Cazetiers to Bouzeron, this major Beaune-based wine merchant, founded in 1731, owns more than 142 plots across 130 hectares of vineyards, including 73 hectares of Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards. This first-rate wine-growing heritage allows Frédéric Weber, a talented winemaker previously in charge of Château de Poncié, to produce approximately 600,000 bottles out of the total three million units produced here each year, with the majority of production coming from purchased grapes for the grand crus and from carefully selected musts for the whites other than those from the estate. Impressive success with both whites and reds in recent vintages.
