Boussey Monthelie Rouge Premier Cru Sur La Velle
Domaine Boussey
France - Burgundy - Monthelie Premier Cru

The grapes for this wine are coming from the parcel located in Monthelie, on the plateau right next to Volnay. They usually produce balanced wines, with a lot of freshness and elegance. 

The wine displays aromas of red fruits, with floral notes (violet) and spice. After cellaring for a couple of years, the wine will develop some secondary aromas with truffle and forest flavors.
