RENE BOUVIER Fixin Crais de Chene 2008

The 2008 René Bouvier Fixin Crais de Chene is classy and elegant with pretty notes of fresh strawberry and mixed berries along with a touch of damp earth, spice, mineral and floral. Medium-bodied with a beautiful silky structure. Everything finishes up really fresh. (Drink 2012-2018) - April, 2012. (JD)

About the Winery:
The estate has been in the family for three generations. Since 1992, it has been run by Bernard Bouvier, and his wife Stéphanie. Henri Bouvier, Bernard’s grandfather, created the estate in 1910. Henri’s son, René Bouvier, took over in 1950 and extended the estate to an area of 29,650 acres (12 hectares) by 1991. The estate is fortunate enough to possess vines boasting an average of 50 years old, and some of the Gevrey-Chambertin plots feature vines that are over 80 years old. The estate is equipped with new, functional, modern buildings to ensure the most hygienic conditions, which were inaugurated with the 2006 harvest. All stages in the winemaking process, from grape-sorting to the finished wine, occur on the premises. The winery follows biodynamic principles and everything has been designed with the greatest respect for both grapes and wine.
