Côte de Nuits-Villages, 2020

At the gates of the Côte de Nuits, this little appellation, often overlooked, gives pride of place to the finesse and elegance characteristic of its illustrious neighbors. We craft our Cuvée with the greatest care, and with the desire to reveal the right expression of the local typicity, while respecting the identity and influence of the vintage. The grapes come from the villages of Fixin, Brochon, Premeaux, Comblanchien and / or Corgoloin.

The wines of the 2018 vintage stand out with an intense color and beautiful power. The season has allowed a perfect maturity which gives coated tannins and a nice concentration of fruit pledges of great greediness. Exceptional in more ways than one, these wines taste already very well in their youth but will be able to reward those who know how to wait a few years.

12 to 18 months in French oak barrels of various capacities, ages and origins in order to smooth the impact of the wood as much as possible and allow a fair expression of the nuances of the appellation. No racking during aging and re-massing for 2 to 3 months before to clarify the wines as naturally as possible.
