Productinformation
This cuvée in a tribute to founder Jules Senard. The fruit comes from 30-year-old vines in several lieux-dits scattered throughout the village: : Les Bruyeres, les Boutières, LesMorais, Les Caillettes and les Nujots.
The result is a wonderful expression of Aloxe's terroir. Partly due to fermentation with part whole bunches, this wine shows considerably more structure and concentration than other regional wines. The wine is aged for 14 months in oak, 40% of which is new oak.
Attractive dark ruby colour with pleasant nose with red fruit but also vanilla, liquorice, nuts and crème de cassis. On the palate it gains power, persistently fruity and with a long finish.
