Tasting notes: The vineyards producing this Nuits-Saint-Georges are located in the climats « Au Bas de Combe » and « Aux Barrières ». Au bas de Combe is one of climat the most renowned with its style of Vosne-Romanée and for its quality.
Very expressive fruity nose with aniseed scents. On the palate, the wine explodes with red fruits aromas. It is juicy, generous, long and intense.
About the winery: Domaine de Perdrix owes its name to the first vintage of Nuits-Saint-Georges Aux Perdrix, which the domain runs as a monopole. This is one of the three domaines that the Devillard family owns (along with the Château de Chamirey and Domaine de la Ferté on the Chalonnaise coast). As well as superb plots in Nuits and Nuits premier crus, the domaine produces Vosne and an Echézeaux. Since the Devillard family took over the domain in 1996, the wines have continued to gain in definition. The family made wise choices such as installing a cooler cellar to allow longer aging periods with fewer heated barriques. The yields are low, the maturity is optimal and the sustainable farming is remarkable. The domain's red wines are powerful whilst still very refined. They have remarkable aging potential.
