Tasting Notes

88-90
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 01
Saturated ruby-red. Blackberry, blueberry, brown spices and iron on the expressive nose. Fat and silky, with noteworthy volume. Plenty of wine here. Finishes with suave tannins and sweet oak notes. This should evolve relatively quickly.

Nuits-Saint-Georges

Nuits-Saint-Georges, a renowned appellation in Burgundy's Côte de Nuits, is famous for its robust, structured Pinot Noir wines with rich flavours of dark cherries, blackberries, and plums, along with earthy, spicy notes. Known for firm tannins and full-bodied character, these wines are ideal for ageing. Although lacking Grand Cru vineyards, Premier Cru sites like Les Saint-Georges and Les Vaucrains produce exceptional wines. Top producers include Domaine Henri Gouges, Domaine Faiveley, and Domaine Robert Chevillon, all celebrated for showcasing the unique terroir with traditional winemaking.
