Nuits-Saint-Georges 2019
-
Concentrated and perfectly balanced, our Nuits-Saint-Georges 2019 shows a ruby color with hints of purple. The nose combines aromas of red berries, floral notes, as well as saffron and sweet spices. The palate is full-bodied, rounded and smooth with soft and silky tannins. The finish of this perfumed wine is long and resonates with complexity.

The Nuits-Saint-Georges appellation consists of two parts. In the north, its soils are rich in alluvial deposits from the Meuzin valley. In the south, the silty soils come from the Vallerots Valley. The top of the hill has exposed limestone rocks. Born from vines on a clay-rich plot, our Nuits-Saint George is at once intense and complex.
