THE STORY

About this wine

Fresh, fruit-driven 2023 Bourgogne Rouge — 100% Pinot Noir from the lieu-dit Les Clos in Bussières. Blackberry, raspberry and plum meet subtle earth and fresh acidity, with a touch of rustic sauvage and no new oak in the way of the fruit.

Thévenet & Fils is a family-owned estate based in Pierreclos in the Mâconnais, Burgundy. The domaine grew from 3 hectares in 1971 to about 30 hectares and is now managed by Hélène Thévenet and her sons Benjamin, Jonathan, and Aurélien. The family also operates a vine nursery serving Burgundy and Champagne growers.

Worth knowing

A family that grows grapes and grows the vines too. The Thévenet nursery has thrived for three generations alongside the domaine, supplying growers across Burgundy and Champagne, and the 2023 Les Clos reaches the U.S. in only a few hundred cases each year.

CHARACTERISTICS AND TASTING TIPS OF THE Thévenet & Fils Bourgogne Rouge 'Les Clos' 2023

Tasting

Color: Red in the glass.
Nose: Black, ripe berry fruit leads, with a touch of rustic sauvage behind it and subtle earth underneath.
Palate: Blackberry, raspberry and plum up front, fresh acidity running underneath, all of it held on a gently rustic frame. Pigeage and remontage did the fermenting and the wine matured without new oak, so the fruit stays the point.
