THE WINE: 

This is the name of a wine from two plots (Le Créot and Pince-vin, a total of 1 hectare / ≈ 2.5 acres), with 90-year-old vines that produce shot berries (hens and chicks, or millerandage). The soil is of two origins: limestone gravel and hard rock substrate for one, and marl for the other.

The Gevrey-Chambertin Racine du temps concentrates all the qualities of a great wine from the Domaine René Bouvier. It is marked by the intensity and depth of these very old vines. You will enjoy a wine with a very concentrated texture, where viscosity soothes the mouth without any sugary heaviness. Its very complex expression combines notes of ripe concentrated fruit, violet, heather, spicy roots, and citrus fruit, with a freshness that ends with a very long, smooth finish.

You can keep this wine for 15 years or more.

Depending on the vintage, we use 50% whole-bunch fermentation, and ageing lasts about 18 months in barrels (with 30% of new barrels).

It will be paired with all kinds of beef, game, stews, a braised veal chop, veal liver with cumin sauce, or a capon stuffed with mushrooms and foie gras in its juices.

Domaine RENÉ BOUVIER

Family estate for 3 generations directed by Bernard Bouvier . The estate was created in 1910 by the grandfather, Henri Bouvier. René Bouvier, Bernard's father, took it over in 1950, and developed it to reach an operating area of 17 hectares of vines from Marsannay to Gevrey-Chambertin (grands crus, premiers crus, villages and regional appellations). 

The entire range has been certified organic since the 2013 vintage.
The estate has very old vines up to 90 years old.

Bernard Bouvier:
"Through vibrant, living wines that have a soul, we seek to perpetuate the exceptional diversity of terroir wines."
