Description

Domaine Hoffmann-Jayer Bourgogne Hautes Cotes de Nuits Rouge 2020Hoffmann Jayers Hautes Ctes de Beaune Rouge comes from a hectares worth of 60 year old Pinot Noir planted in the lieux dits En Foigery and Les Castaings in Magny ls Villers. After a pre fermentation cold soak and a spontaneous fermentation in cement tank, the wine spends 18 months aging in a combination of two thirds 228 liter barrels (20% new) and one third terracotta jar before being bottled without filtration. Bright, red fruited, and marked by lip

with neither trait calling too much attention to itself

with the other 20% a combination of Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon

But the payoff is a wine of great depth that tends to offer amazing value due to its relatively under-the-radar reputation

Sébastien Genovesi destems the grapes and employs a lengthy maceration with daily pigeage and remontage

and the regal breadth Chardonnay in these great sites can achieve

The Gamay loses its roughness while the Pinot gains

Its character is muscled and exuberant with a rustic shrug of its broad shoulders

slightly waxier

The result is one of the most powerful wines in the cellar that shows dark

which spoke of the Langhe source

Aged 90% in stainless steel and 10% in used 500-liter oak barrels

with concentrated flavors of red plum and dried raspberry
