Domaine Bitouzet Prieur Bourgogne Rouge 2023 750ml

Winemaker Description 

Bitouzet’s formidable Bourgogne Rouge comes from a hectare’s worth of Pinot Noir planted between 1963 and 1970 in the lieu-dit Petit Près, situated just below the villages-level Volnay vineyard Les Pasquiers near the Meursault border. Aged entirely in used barrels for 12 months, it leads with fruit— small-berried, finely etched fruit—but possesses ample minerality and a notable sense of refinement for its level. 

Expert Review - VIntage 2023 

Allen Meadows Burghound | Slightly more elegant aromas include those of red currant, cherry and softer earth influence. There is slightly better size, weight and mid-palate density to the medium weight flavors that possess a caressing mouthfeel while delivering solid depth and persistence on the bitter pit fruit-inflected finale. This is quite good for its level and worth a look.
