Henri & Gilles Buisson - St Romain Sous le Château 2022: A wine with character and depth
Experience the Terroir:
With St Romain Sous le Château 2022, Henri & Gilles Buisson present a wine that is deeply rooted in its terroir. This south/southeast facing plot is situated 370 meters up a hillside below the ruins of an ancient castle. The mild climate and the strategic location provide optimal conditions for the vines, which benefit from the generous sun that caresses the field all day.

The mineral-rich soil gives the wine depth and complexity, while the 30-40-year-old vines ensure a concentration of flavor that can only be achieved through decades of care and management.
