Domaine Camus-Bruchon et Fils

Guillaume Camus of Domaine Camus-Bruchon is one of the very finest red winemakers in the Côte de Beaune. Located in the village of Savigny-les-Beaune, just to the north of Beaune proper, the Camus fashion beautifully balanced, deep and complex wines that are the epitome of what great Burgundy is all about. The family has a lovely spread of top vineyards in Savigny-les-Beaune (both superb premier crus and a handful of top village wine parcels planted with very old pinot noir vines), as well as a bit of premier cru in Beaune and Pommard as well.

This wine is named after Guillaume’s Great, Great Grandmother. Produced from 4 separate parcels – Dessus Les Vermots, Les Goudelettes, Clos des Pointes and Aux Champs des Pruniers. This is a wine that oozes finesse. There are super aromatic whiffs of fresh cassis aromas and the palate is full of crunchy ripe black fruits, succulent and seamless with a delightful tannin structure. This is great affordable red Burgundy and should be considered in any En Primeur purchase this vintage.
