BOURGOGNE SELECT
Since its creation in 2006, Bourgogne Select has brought together a selection of winemakers and small traders from all the wine regions of France.
B. Select, with “B” for Beaujolais and Burgundy because of the company’s proximity and partnerships with the areas that accompanied the creation and development of the business. “B” is also for Bordeaux, prominent in the export business. In addition, “B” represents all regions of France including about forty estates, independent winegrowers and wine artisans who excel in the quality of their wines and their craft.
“B” welcomes the Cave des Rouvres, Bourgogne Select’s “landmark”, that offers individuals and professionals, wine merchants, restaurants, associations and other resellers, a showcase of the wine regions of France.

Tasting
The Briante plateau, made of deep, sparse and acidic sandy granite, gives
the wine a freshness without equal. Sweet and crunchy. Silky tannins. Fruity taste of fresh cherry.
A little mineral note at the end prolongs the tasting and the pleasure.
Gastronomy
This wine pairs well with grilled meats, grilled or barbecued fish, roast chicken, cold cuts or a cheese platter. A user-friendly wine that is easy to share. A wine for the entire meal.
