Intensity
The peak of pureness and elegance! Fleuron is Laurent Roumier's favourite wine. The only downside of this Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru is the low quantities produced (about 600 bottles). From stonier soil than at Chambolle, it has a remarkable mouth-feel. Bonnes-Mares is one of the most renowned wines of Burgundy. Here, Pinot Noir reaches its peak! From a 70-year old parcel of 0.14 hectares, situated in the middle of the climat, this wine is similar to Chambolle-Musigny, but with more concentration, more magnitude and length in the mouth, with a highly complex palette of aromas. Magnificent!

About the Producer Laurent Roumier
Laurent Roumier, the cousin of Christophe (from the George Roumier domain) has long been associated with his brother. Since 1991 he has managed a four hectare-domain of rented vineyards, which he increased to seven hectares in 2005. These vineyards spread over the Bourgogne, Hautes Côtes de Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny, Clos Vougeot and Bonnes-Mares appellations. Laurent Roumier traditionally cultivates and vinifies using the old methods of treading and pumping over, without a pre-fermentation "cold soak", followed by a 15 to 18 month maturation in oak casks.
A man of few words, Laurent is fairly secretive when it comes to his "savoir-faire". However, his mastery is highly regarded amongst enlightened connoisseurs. His range includes wines made to be enjoyed soon (La Poirelotte) as well as cuvées with excellent ageing potential. Further information :Read the article about the domain Laurent Roumier on the blog
