The well-balanced 2020 Le Haut de la Butte is aged in oak barriques. It has black cherry and blackberry aromas, a ripe and full texture, and well worked tannins. It can be drunk now but will develop further in bottle. In 2002 Jacky Blot bought the 15ha Domaine de la Butte in Bourgueil. With the exception of Le Pied de la Butte, the vines are on the clay limestone coteaux facing south. Le Haut de la Butte is at the top of the vineyard protected from north winds by trees, well exposed but not quite as well as Mi-Pente – the central block. The domaine has swiftly become one of the best in the Bourgueil appellation.
