WINE DESCRIPTION
Nestled in the picturesque landscapes of the Mâconnais, Domaine Dupré is a traditional winery that has been run by the Dupré family since the 1950s. Initially a mixed farm with livestock and a few hectares of vines, the estate has grown into a renowned 26-hectare vineyard. Jean-Christophe and Vincent Dupré excel at drawing the best from their terroir. With 10 hectares of Chardonnay thriving on Mancey’s white marl, and Pinot Noir rooted in the red earth of "Sous Borreau," each wine reflects its unique origin. Gamay, carefully cultivated on the deep clay-limestone soils of the Royer Valley, completes their selection.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Domaine Dupré Bourgogne Rouge is a delightful expression of Pinot Noir from the Burgundy region.On the nose, expect enticing aromas of ripe red berries, such as cherries and raspberries, accompanied by subtle floral notes. These fragrances are complemented by hints of earthiness and a touch of spice, adding complexity to the bouquet.
The palate reveals a medium-bodied wine with a smooth and velvety texture. The flavors mirror the aromas, with vibrant red fruit flavors taking center stage. The acidity provides a refreshing lift, while the fine-grained tannins contribute to a well-structured and elegant mouthfeel.
The Domaine Dupré Bourgogne Rouge is a versatile wine that can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a variety of dishes. It pairs particularly well with roasted poultry, grilled salmon, or mushroom risotto. Serve it slightly chilled to enhance its vibrant fruit flavors.
