+ WINEMAKING | PROFILE: VIA THE IMPORTER
Buisson's Bourgogne Rouge offers an expertly rendered balance of seriousness and breeziness. The Saint-Romain terroir's tendency to produce kinetic red wines of palpable minerality is on full display here, with bright cherry fruit given lift by tremendously vibrant acidity.
While the wine is lithe and without flab, it possesses admirable sap and bastes the palate with dense, mouthwatering fruit. The Bourgogne Rouge spends one full year in entirely used 228-liter barrels with minimal sulfur additions.
