Sainte-Marie-La-Blanche Les Granges de Verbaut Maxime Dubuet Boillot 2023

Les Granges de Verhaut is a red wine made from Pinot Noir, cultivated on one hectare in Sainte-Marie-la-Blanche, near Beaune. The vines are meticulously planted at a density of 5,000 per hectare, employing a high training system of 1.90 metres to maximise sunlight exposure for the grapes. The soil is primarily composed of limestone and scree, providing excellent drainage and contributing to the grape variety’s minerality. The vinification follows traditional methods with a strict respect for the terroir, while the maturation occurs in oak casks, imparting subtle notes and lovely complexity to the juice.
On the nose, this nectar presents a bright garnet hue and reveals intense aromas of red fruits, such as blackcurrant and blackberry, complemented by floral hints of peony. On the palate, it stands out for its finesse, freshness, and a delightful mineral tension, offering immediate enjoyment along with the potential for several years of ageing.
