Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 09
(50% vendange entier Pale-medium red. Smoky red fruits on the subdued nose. Supple, rich and pliant, with enticing sweetness to the fruit-driven flavors of cherry and raspberry. Finishes with solid, dusty tannins and good floral persistence.

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.
