2016 Domaine Tawse Gevrey-Chambertin "En Pallud", Burgundy, France
ABOUT THIS WINE
The wines here are made by Englishman, Mark Fincham. Mark’s handling of the domain’s grands crus have earned him the respect of local vignerons. His village wines are made with the same exacting detail. En Pallud sits just below Mazis-Chambertin, in the heart of the village. This is a serious Gevrey: cool, fresh, mineral, and beautifully balanced.
"En Pallud" appellation extends over calcareous and brown soils. This wine is 100% destemmed fruit resulting in a clean finish. This wine has been aged 18 months using 33% new oak.
ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
From their base opposite each other in Nuits-St Georges, Domaine Tawse and its négociant arm, Marchand-Tawse, are jointly responsible for a tempting array of red and white Burgundy. The domain was developed in 2012 by Burgundy aficionados, Pascal Marchand, a Burgundy négociant with a career that included Comte Armand and Domaine de la Vougeraie, and fellow Canadian, Morey Tawse. The heart of Domaine Tawse, formerly Domaine Maume, lies in Gevrey-Chambertin and produces outstanding communal, premiers and grands crus from Gevrey and the northern sector of the Côte de Beaune, all of which are farmed biodynamically.
Englishman Mark Fincham, who came from Domaine de Pegau in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, is the domaine’s winemaker and his wines are modern, elegant and easily approachable even in their youth. The négociant arm, Marchand-Tawse, showcases the region's best using bought-in Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes from vineyards ranging from entry-level Bourgogne to grand cru with winemaker Thomas Dinel overseeing the whole process from grape to bottle and taking its well-made range of Burgundy to the next level of quality.
