Domaine David Duband, Bourgogne Rouge, 2020

David Duband is regarded as one of Burgundy’s fastest rising stars. David has been carefully crafting wines from his family estate in Chevannes since 1991. Starting with very small holdings in Côtes de Nuits, he has expanded his portfolio to include exceptional old Grand Cru vineyards in Gevrey Chambertin and Morey St Denis. Duband works his 17 hectares of vines organically and biodynamically with very low levels of sulfites and harvests entirely by hand. In the cellar, he uses a high percentage of whole bunch fermentation and a low percentage of new oak for ageing.

The resulting wine is a classic Pinot Noir with a fine structure that is red-fruited, spicy and earthy. A charming aperitif wine that pairs well with charcuterie.
