Cyprien makes two Bourgognes, and this is the one that comes from the domaine’s single parcel which lies just beyond the village boundary of Gevrey-Chambertin, but a stone’s throw from the village’s Grands Crus. It is a fairly serious Bourgogne, with an expressive, chewy core to it, offering up the density of Gevrey, with the open fruit to drink well from early on.
The 2023 Bourgogne Roncevie, completely destemmed and recently racked, presents a pretty nose of redcurrant, cranberry and a touch of iris flowers. The medium-bodied palate offers pliant tannins and sweet black cherries with a hint of vanilla on the finish. Enjoy this over the next three or four years.
The Bourgogne was being bottled on the day I visited, though the sample had been taken first. Fresh pink to purple colour. Quite a tense fresh raspberry pinot on the nose. Sharp acidity, acidulated raspberry, very tight, but the fruit quality is very good. Drink from 2026-2028. Tasted Dec 2024.
