Jean-Luc & Paul Aegerter is a Nuits-Saint-Georges negociant owned and operated by the father and son team Jean-Luc and Paul Aegerter. Jean-Luc started the business in 1988. He is a wine merchant but his background also includes growing grapes and winemaking. Paul joined his father in the business in 2001 and today the maison exports wine from 40 Burgundy appellations to 14 countries around the world. The maison’s wines come from 125 acres, and the many wines it offers range from red and white Grand Crus, to sparkling wines, Beaujolais and value-priced reds and whites.
Bonnes Mares is a Grand Cru vineyard that is located in two appellations Chambolle-Musigny and the neighboring Morey St.-Denis. Of the total of 37.6 acres, 33.75 are in Chambolle, and just under 4 acres are in Morey St. Denis. The history of the vineyard is complicated and today there are some 35 landholders. The vineyard lies between 265 and 300 meters. The soil is heavier toward Morey St.-Denis, which is the northern end of the vineyard, and lighter as the vineyard enters the Chambolle-Musigny commune. Principal landholders are De Vogue, 6.7 acres; Drouhin-Laroze, 3.7 acres; and Georges Roumier, 3.5 acres.
This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
