Details
Immediately to the north of Nuits-St-Georges, on the edge of the combe which leads up to the Hautes Côtes. Contrary to what you might be led to think from a superficial examination, the earth is not very deep in this appellation. The orientation is also deceptive: facing due south, and yet the vines ripen late, as cold air comes down from the combe. Fortunately, the vines are able to integrate and assimilate these contradictory influences.
Winemaker notes
A frank, intense wine, with aromas of fresh fruit (blackberry, blackcurrant). There is much silkiness on the palate and a very long finish dominated by acidity. On a tendance à le sous-estimer au départ car il peut apparaître rustique, un qualificatif dont sont affublés de nombreux Nuits St Georges, pas toujours à raison ... Mais il faut savoir attendre car il acquière beaucoup de charme au vieillissement, grâce à sa fraîcheur naturelle.
2022
Burghound 89-91: A ripe but cool nose somewhat grudgingly offers up its aromas of various dark berries, forest floor and an interesting hint of wet stone. The super-sleek, detailed and overtly mineral-driven flavors are not particularly dense but there is excellent length to the dusty, chalky and youthfully austere finish. This could also use better depth so at least some patience should help.
