| District | Côte Chalonnaise |
| ABV | 13% |
The 2021 Bourgogne Rouge has turned out especially well, delivering aromas of strawberries, rose petals, orange rind and spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, supple and perfumed palate. Destemmed entirely by hand (retaining some pedicels), it's one of Cottenceau's finest reds to date. Drinking range: 2023 - 2028 Rating: 89 William Kelley, The Wine Advocate (Oct 2023)

Domaine Maxime Cottenceau
A brand new Domaine, as young Maxime Cottenceau sets out on his solo career, having worked extensively with Vincent Dureuil.
The family have always been members of the Buxy co-op, but Maxime has seen what can be done and is clearly ambitious - even his first set of wines in 2018 were impressive, but with the 2019s he has really hit his stride. Volumes are tiny for now, but this is a domaine that will grow rapidly with more vines coming on stream each year, It has a very strong future.
Maxime has learned from Vincent, making wines with 'noble reduction' and these are intended to be long-term wines - if drinking young, he recommends opening a little ahead of time, or even a quick decant.
