{"product_id":"domaine-des-croix-saint-romain-combe-bazin-2023","title":"Domaine des Croix Saint-Romain Combe Bazin 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is only the third vintage from Domaine des Croix's Combe Bazin, a steep, stony site on white soils. Croix's parcel covers a single hectare. The vines deliver microscopic yields, and Croix is replanting most of the vineyard with mass-selection cuttings. The two barrels from 2023 come from the finest 15% of the vines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grapes were lightly crushed, followed by a gentle three-hour press. The wine fermented spontaneously and aged for a year on lees in used 500-litre barrels before another six months in concrete. Croix notes that the archetypal Combe Bazin is a Saint-Romain that fills out the palate, and that is precisely what you get here: generosity balanced with juicy freshness, mineral chalkiness and coolness from the terroir's altitude and shallow limestone soils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBill Nanson of Burgundy Report wrote: \"There's width of aroma here but then there's linearity too, that's very attractive. Wide in the mouth, growing with intensity then clean, chalky, finishing. That's a delicious finish, nice and clean. Lovely.\" A Saint-Romain that punches well above its appellation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"appellance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50470785941697,"sku":null,"price":160.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0843\/3428\/0897\/files\/Domaine_des_Croix_Saint-Romain_Combe_Bazin_2023.webp?v=1786101995","url":"https:\/\/appellance.com\/products\/domaine-des-croix-saint-romain-combe-bazin-2023","provider":"Appellance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
