Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Champs Gains Michel Bouzereau et Fils (Domaine) 2003
The wine
The Les Champs Gains premier cru is an attractive, typical Puligny which can be enjoyed without cellaring. It exudes aromas of white flowers (acacia), white fruit and hazelnut notes. The palate reveals great richness, roundness, vigour and fruitiness. The mouth ends with an attractively long finish.
About the Producer Michel Bouzereau et Fils
In 1999, Jean-Baptiste officially took over Domaine Michel Bouzereau, proudly adding ‘et fils' to the estate name. This producer inherited a well-established family history, since the Bouzereaus have been making wine in Meursault for 7 generations. Observant and attentive, Jean-Baptiste spends most of his time in the vineyard, carefully watching the vines and working on the soil, convinced as he is that healthy fruit is the key to fine wine. The vines are grown sustainably with a philosophy moving towards organics. In 2008, he finished working on his new winery, giving him much more space to take care of each of his cuvées individually and adapt to their rhythm. The wines all come from parcels in Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, Beaune, Pommard and Volnay, each of them increasingly appreciated for their elegance and finesse. Each of them respect the specificity of terroir and vintage.
