La Grande Carelle, produced from old vines beneath the Château de Pommard, is an elegant wine with complex aromas, meticulously aged to offer a refined experience of Burgundy wines.
More infoLa Grande Carelle by Maxime Dubuet-Boillot is a wine made from sixty-year-old vines cultivated on a 50-are plot located beneath the Château de Pommard. This vineyard, previously classified as Pommard Villages until the 1950s, benefits from a south-eastern exposure and soils rich in limestone and gravel. The vinification begins with a 90% destemming stage, followed by a maceration that includes regular punch downs and pump overs. Pressing is performed with the utmost care, and the juice is then aged for 12 months in French oak casks, with 30% new wood. This ageing period imparts a refined structure and complex aromas to the cuvée.
On the nose, it reveals notes of black cherry, raspberry and violet, enhanced by subtle wood nuances. On the palate, this elixir offers a silky texture, lovely freshness, and a long finish marked by mineral and lightly smoky touches.
