Burgundy Wine Flight 〜3-Variety Tasting Set〜
CHEVROT Bourgogne Rosé Sakura 2022
This wine has a clear, floral aroma of currant and cherry. It has a refreshing, smooth taste, fine acidity, and a slightly bitter finish with spices of pink pepper and licorice. It pairs well with delicate dishes such as Beni Fuji trout with asparagus, gizzard confit, and shrimp cocktail. This wine is made by the Chevrolet brothers, who practice organic farming in Maranges, the southernmost part of Burgundy. Earning two stars from the prestigious French magazine Meilleur Vin de France, this winery is currently attracting attention.
SEGUIN MANUEL Montagny Blanc 1er Cru Vigne du Soleil 2016
Aromas of ripe fruit like pear and plum are layered with nuances of toasted wood from the oak barrels. This rich and full-bodied white wine has a soft texture and expansive flavor, with clean acidity creating an elegant finish. It pairs exquisitely with rich, savory dishes such as duck and foie gras pate, red snow crab cakes, and fresh fish in red wine sauce. Combining maturity and elegance, this wine will add a touch of elegance to any meal.
This venerable domaine, founded over 200 years ago, continues to preserve tradition while expressing a contemporary style. The organically grown grapes from the finest plots in Burgundy produce exceptional wines crafted with a highly artisanal approach. Thibaut Marion was named France's Best Young Winemaker in 2009.
FAIVELEY Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Pruliers 2018
A deep, vibrant dark ruby. Fresh berry fruit harmonizes with sweet spices, earthy notes, and roasted aromas. The palate is powerful, with a well-structured body and fine tannins, resulting in a long, lingering finish. It pairs exceptionally well with hearty meat dishes, such as roast duck with orange sauce and Hokkaido beef tenderloin steak with truffle sauce. The prestigious Faiveley is a long-established winemaking house with roots in Nuits-Saint-Georges for seven generations. Under the current owner, Erwan Faiveley, the winery expresses the charm of the terroir with a modern sensibility, based on the motto of "freshness, elegance, and power."
