NOUVELLES BURGUNDY
DE BOISSET
FALL 2021

Six new appellations

The Jean-Claude Boisset wine house is introducing six new gems from the
2019 vintage, which was a classic for house winemaker Grégory Patriat.
These hand-crafted, limited-edition wines include a white Fixin, four
premier crus from the Côte de Nuits, and one from the Côte de Beaune.
