Bourgogne Domaine Chevrot 1997
This is a 1997 Bourgogne from Domaine Chevrot, a French red wine classified under the Appellation Bourgogne Contrôlée. As indicated on the label, the wine was bottled directly at the estate by the proprietor, Fernand Chevrot.
Produced in Burgundy in eastern France, a region shaped by medieval monks who meticulously mapped its countless terroirs, this 1997 vintage received a score of 86 points and is described as charming, but quickly developed. Burgundy has made terroir an art form with its intricate system of climats, where the limestone soils—stretching from Chablis in the north to the Côte d'Or and Mâconnais in the south—form the foundation of the area's viticulture.
The wine is made from Pinot Noir, an elegant blue grape that is deeply tied to the region. While Pinot Noir is the primary red grape cultivated in Burgundy, it is also widely grown in other prominent wine areas such as Champagne, Germany, Oregon, and California. The wine is presented in a 750 ml bottle and has an alcohol content of 12.5%.
