Tasting Notes: Pungent aromas of firm reduction and wood toast introduce sleek, intense and powerful middle weight flavors that possess excellent definition on the mineral-inflected and impressively long if somewhat lean and austere finish where a hint of warmth surfaces. This too will need a few years of bottle age to flesh out.
Jean-Marie Fourrier's Philosophy: "First, I only buy fruit and make the wines from appellations that I don't have under the domaine's umbrella. Second, I only buy fruit from domaines who make their own wines from those same grapes as I don't want someone else's cast off production. Third I don't want the total volume from the négociant side to ever total more than 20% of what I make on the domaine side so that my clients understand where my primary focus is. Lastly, the range of wines will only be between Gevrey and Vosne, which again allows me to monitor the quality of the fruit in the vineyards I'm buying from regularly."
Boccaccio Cellars offers real time shipping rates at checkout. These are heavily subsidised rates directly from Australia Post and will vary depending on your postcode.
Unfortunately, due to the ever increasing costs of postage we are unable to offer free shipping any longer. Postal increases have seen the average box of wine range from $30-$60, which can represent up to 500% of the cost of the average bottle of wine.
Your postal costs are calculated on the following factors:
- Where in Australia you are shipping to (Where rural postcodes obviously attract a higher charge)
- What in Australia you are shipping (Beer and water for example, are calculated in real time without any additional subsidy. This is because the margins for these products are minimal). Dry goods attract a discounted flat fee of $12 per carton (Calculated by gross weight).
Pickups on all items are encouraged.
