WINE DESCRIPTION

Domaine Bryczek Cuvée du Pape Jean-Paul II Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru was established by Georges Bryczek, who was born in Poland in 1912 and came to France in 1938. Being a devout Catholic, Georges made a pilgrimage to the Vatican City where he had an audience with Pope Jean-Paul II. His Holiness blessed the wine and gave Georges permission to name the wine “Cuvée du Pape Jean-Paul II.” The wine is produced exclusively from vines planted in 1920. Fermentation takes place in concrete tanks and maturation last for about 18 months in a mix of old and new barrels.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru wine from Domaine Bryczek offers a complex bouquet of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and raspberries, intertwined with delicate floral notes of violets and roses.There is also a subtle hint of earthiness, adding depth and intrigue to the aromatic profile. The palate shows fine detail, with nuances of black tea, spices, and a touch of oak. The wine displays a medium body, with a silky texture that coats the mouth and leads to a long, satisfying finish.
