Les Fuees

Burgundy 2011 En Primeur Best Buys - Premier Crus

A rich and juicy wine, with poise and elegance – everything one would want from a fine Chambolle-Musigny.
Stuart Rae, Private Account Manager

This shows excellent concentration, yet is once again a sensual, stylish wine with ripe plum and fresh raspberry notes. It has an excellent sense of energy, and is long and impressive.
Jasper Morris MW, Berrys' Burgundy Director

Patrice and son Maxime Rion are tweaking their techniques a little by reducing new oak and slightly increasing extraction in the pre-fermentation stage. The results are impressive; in 2011 the wines have come in naturally at around 12.5% alcohol and they show a true sense of balance.

Patrice’s Les Fuées 1er Cru wine has an engaging bouquet of vibrant cherry fruit. Healthy, fine and elegant, yet with good underlying energy, this is really very attractive.
