Bruno Clair represents the 6th generation or his family to make wine in Burgundy. His sons Edouard (vines) and Arthur (cellar) the 7th.The wines have always been great, but are achieving new heights with the last few vintages. Edouard and Arthur have move to organics in the vineyards and more refinement in the cellar. The wines' style haven't changed, but their vibrancy and clarity have been amped up.
One of the family's 2 sites in the Côte de Beaune. La Dominode' was originally planted in 1902, individual vines replanted as needed.
William Kelley:
"Aromas of raspberries, violets, rose petals and spices introduce the 2023 Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru La Dominode, a medium to full-bodied, supple and succulent wine that's deep, seamless and suave, with ripe tannins, lively acids and a long, expansive finish. It's worth a special effort to seek out."
