Chorey les Beaune “Les Beaumonts” is a rich red Burgundy with a robust structure and high potential for aging.
The grapes for this wine, from Domaine Sylvain Dussort, grow on a plot squeezed between the vineyards of Savigny-lès-Beaune and Aloxe-Corton, and so benefits from a similar geographical position as its prestigious neighbours, giving it both body and bouquet. The subsoil consists of shale-limestone alluvia over a layer of rock.
Winemakers harvest the grapes by hand, removing substandard bunches both in the vines and at the winery, depending on seasonal conditions.
Whole bunches are put into wooden vats and gently crushed. Several days of cold pre-ferment is followed by warming to prompt the fermentation using only natural yeasts.
Vinification follows the traditional Bourgogne methods of pushing down the caps and pumping over for 15 to 20 days depending on the year.
The wine is aged in barrels for 12 to 14 months. It is then racked off into a single vat for 2 to 3 months before bottling on the estate.
This wine is moderately tannic, yet rich in character. Depending on the year, it requires several years in bottle before drinking (from 3 to 8 years). Its aromas of blackcurrant and gingerbread will then come through.
Enjoy Chorey les Beaune “Les Beaumonts” as a fine accompaniment for offal, roasted poultry and mature cheeses.
