Domaine Denis Carré

This domaine was established by Denis Carré and his wife in 1974 with the first vintage produced in 1975. Situated in the heart of the village of Meloisey in the Hautes Côtes de Beaune, it covers 12ha in 12 different appellations. Although not certified, the domaine is farmed organically. It has been run by his son and daughter, Martial and Gaetane, since 2008. Full of energy and passion they are raising the quality of wines produced here at an impressive speed.

This is a very sexy and alluring wine, rich and velvety with a delicious succulent palate. There are notes of prunes and red berries, and a little hint of toasted oak which provides an added dimension. The tannins are beautiful, soft and ripe giving great support.
