Let us introduce you to Domaine Jessiaume, one of the finest wineries to grace the scenic landscape of Burgundy. It was founded by the Jessiaume family in 1850, but these days it is in the safe hands of Dr Jean-François Le Bigot, who has ushered the winery into the modern era of organic and minimal intervention viticulture.
Domaine Jessiaume gets its grapes from a variety of fantastic appellations and Premier Cru’s within the Côte de Beaune - many of which are important stops on your journey through Burgundian wine. “Les Cents Vignes” is one such Premier Cru, with a wonderful clayish limestone soil that gifts its wines with a strong earthy and mineral vein.
Les Cents Vignes is a 100% Pinot Noir wine, appearing with a vivid scarlet hue in the glass. Inquisitive notes of mulberry, raspberry, damp earth and pepper rise to the forefront of the nose. It is a medium-bodied wine but contains an intense, focused backbone of pure fruit that gives it a formidable character. Look for a core of red cherry, raspberry, lilac and mushroom, with a subtly mineral finish. When pairing this wine, try it alongside a thick mushroom risotto, soft cheese, or a hearty lamb chop.
Very good service, fast and reliable.
