Tasting notes
A lovely, brilliant crimson color. A very earthy Nuits nose with some vanilla bean, too. On the palate, smoky, velvet-textured fruit without any tannin, but acids take their place, so the wine is nicely balanced. Not heavy, but a very elegant Pinot expression at the end.
It is the fruit of a blending of 5 climates: the Plateaux, Belles Croix, Fleurières, Brûlées, and the Chaliots, for a surface area of 2 hectares. All of these parcels are located at the south of Nuits Saint Georges, at the start of the hillside, on deep soils, with a blending of clay, alluvium and limestone gravels.
Expert Ratings
Wine Spectator - 93/100
"Ripe yet fresh and pure, this harmonious red boasts cherry, raspberry, floral and spice flavors, with refined tannins and vibrant acidity lending support. The finish persists, echoing the fruit and spice elements."
