David Duband 2023 (75cl)

David Duband is a Burgundy producer known for red wine. He describes himself as a lazy winemaker, meaning he leaves the wines largely undisturbed in the cellar. The work lies mainly in harvesting perfectly ripe grapes and adapting vinification to their quality. He seeks a natural balance and maximum expression of terroir, extracting gently rather than heavily. The wooden barrels used for ageing contribute only limited aroma compounds and are used mainly for micro-oxidation. During alcoholic fermentation and maceration, whole bunches are used instead of destemmed grapes, giving the wines more freshness and slightly less alcohol.
