The wine region of Champagne Grand Cru 'Bouzy'
Grand Cru village at the heart of the Grande Montagne de Reims (373 ha, 87% Pinot Noir): signature Pinot Noir as Champagne's ruling red — ample, generous and opulent with intense red fruits (ripe cherry, raspberry), spice and exceptional depth, powerful structure and finesse, round vinosity, great age-worthy. Full south slope, Cretaceous chalks giving structure and finesse. Bouzy Rouge flagship in Coteaux Champenois.
The wine region of Champagne
World benchmark sparkling wines: fine bubbles, citrusy tension, notes of brioche, toasted almond, white flowers and white-fleshed fruits after ageing on lees. Three grapes blended or solo: fleshy Pinot Noir (38%), fruity Meunier (33%), chiselled Chardonnay (28%). From straight Blanc de Blancs to vinous Blanc de Noirs, from non-vintage Brut to age-worthy Millésimé. AOC since 1927, 34,300 ha on chalk, 17 Grands Crus and 44 Premiers Crus.
The word of the wine: Local wine
Table wine, but with the origin indicated. It corresponds to a particular legislation: the freedom to use grape varieties is greater than for the AOC, but the quality criteria such as the approval tastings can sometimes be more demanding. The legislation is still evolving, but for the moment there are three levels: regional (e.g. Vin de Pays d'Oc), departmental and local (e.g. Côtes de Thongue).
