Tasting notes
The intense nose of this Nuits-Saint-Georges opens with a bouquet of ripe red berries. Hints of spice and green pepper follow and deep notes of sterry stone complete the aromatic palet. Its palate, fleshy and structured, reveals a clear tannic structure, complemented by a welcome freshness.
The Vineyard
To the north of the appellation, at the foot of the hillside, our Pinot Noir vines were planted in 1994 on heavy clay soils with high concentrations of silt and gravel. The result is a structured and remarkably intense wine.
The Vintage
2022 is synonymous with a vintage of great quality and the return of satisfying volumes.
After a mild and dry winter, the growing season arrived early. Spared by the April frost, the warm spring accelerated plant growth, favoring early flowering and optimal fruit set. After particularly dry spells during winter and spring, late June rains were timely. A hot, dry and at times scorching summer allowed for a good ripening, although in places the vines did react to hydric stress.
Mid-August rainfall will be decisive by constant sunshine until the harvests, which started on 25th August in the Côte de Beaune and 2nd September in the Côte de Nuits.
