2006 Mongeard-Mugneret, Domaine Beaune Avaux 1er Cru Pinot Noir
Pinot Noir: 750ml
$43.99
about this wine:
The wines from "Les Avaux" are very deep and dark in colour. The bouquet is very varied and complex, with animal notes suggestive of leather and aromas of red and dark fruits, including red berries, blackcurrants and morello cherries.
Both silky and dense, in the mouth the Beaune 1er Cru "Les Avaux" has great distinction, and is very well balanced as well as warm and round. There are firm but not excessive tannins magnificently blended with savours of dark cherries with underlying meaty nuances.
About Winery
The Mongeard family arrived in Vosne-Romanée
in the eighteenth century, and records show a Mongeard working as
vigneron for Domaine de la Romanée-Conti in 1786. In 1945, Jean
Mongeard, whose mother was a Mugneret, found himself making wine at the
age of 16. His father had died five years before, and there was no one
left to do the job. The entire 1945 crop was purchased by Baron le Roy,
Marquis d'Angerville and Henri Gouges. Gouges instructed the young
Mongeard to personally bottle the wines, rather than sell in barrel.
