Tasting notes

Georges Roumier crafts the Morey-Saint-Denis Clos de la Bussière, a testament to the essence of Pinot Noir from Burgundy. The 2005 vintage showcases maturity and balance, drawing out the depth of the Morey-Saint-Denis terroir. It's a bottle that captures the special richness of this appellation.

In volume 32 of 'Drops of God', this wine is presented by Nakata as a particularly special bottle. It's noted for its softness and finesse, offering elegance rather than raw power. It's a rare treasure in Japan, highlighted in the story for its premium nature and special meaning.

Pouring this wine reveals a beautiful ruby hue that catches the eye. The aroma is filled with sweet notes of ripe raspberry and a floral touch of violets. On the palate, it starts with a soft attack, followed by lively acidity that tightens the profile, and velvety tannins that gently spread across the tongue. The elegance lingers, captivating those who drink it.

Enjoy this wine at around 15°C, letting its elegant aroma unfold in a smaller glass. It’s an experience not to be missed.
