Henri Jayer被譽為近數十年來最偉大的布根地釀酒師,亦肯定是最具影響力的一位。他於1922出生於Vosne Romanée。 Henri Jayer多年來為Noirot-Camuzet(現稱Méo-Camuzet)當佃農,這些田地以及他自家的葡萄田造就出多款卓爾美酒,包括極品Richebourg。
1987年,年屆六十五的Henri Jayer適齡退休,而他與Méo家族的佃農合約亦告屆滿,Méo家族遂收回葡萄田,包括Henri Jayer一直釀製的Nuits les Meurgers及Vosne Brulées,以及著名的Richebourg,這亦是Henri Jayer最後一年為這三個產區釀製美酒。
Producer note: Méo stresses that for his négoce wines that he does everything as though these were domaine wines, which is to say all of the vineyard work and harvesting plus of course the vinification and élevage duties. See the Domaine comments above for more general information about the vintage and importer information.
♥ Outstanding Top value ,Tasting note: A rustic nose of both red and dark berry fruit aromas is cut with plenty of pungent earth. There is good richness and volume to the fleshy and attractively textured flavors that possess impressive depth and length for a wine at this level. Worth checking out as this is very good.
