2023 Domaine Duroche Combe au Moine, Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru, France

$325.00

Duroché vineyards are worked with the utmost attention given to the health of the soil. As a matter of principle, nothing more than sulfur or copper are used for vineyard treatments. Grapes are of course hand-harvested and sorted both in the vineyard and in the cellar prior to maceration and fermentation. In general, everything is de-stemmed and macerated with a gentle pigeage, followed later by remontage, all with the goals of purity and finesse. With the exception of a small bit of sulfur following malolactic fermentation, absolutely no additives are used in the winemaking process. Additionally, the wines see no more than 15% new oak and ageing lasts 15-16 month on the fine lees, most often without racking. Lastly, wines are bottled without fining, filtration or enzyme additions.

Arrives the last week of December, 2025.
