The wine
In 1990, Vincent and Aline Bouzereau took over this wonderful estate and settled in a pretty Meursault property in 1992. This has since been renovated and is not far away from the famous church. Over time, this family estate has continued to widen their diverse and varied acquisitions such as this fantastic Corton Clos des Fiètres, enclosed in walls, situated on the edge of the Aloxe-Corton village between the Grand Crus of les Perrières and Les Chaumes, and acquired in 2003. The vines there have an average age of 70 years of and are planted in a red clay and gravel soil which gives the wine a great density and a beautiful hint of saltiness in its finish. This is without a doubt a well-composed wine with flawless elegance.
We are absolutely won over by the work and the production of the estate’s red and white wines. They aim to create fine, balanced wines with perfect ripeness, always elegantly aged and with an impressive density. The wines can be enjoyed young, but they become so much more when aged in the cellar for many years.
