- PhilosophyThe legendary Côte de Nuits, with its succession of prestigious appellations that have enchanted the entire world, has the (justified!) reputation of producing unaffordable wines. Côte de Nuits-Villages is the exception to the rule. It may only be produced in 5 villages that border the heart of the Côte de Nuits: Fixin and Brochon to the north, Premeaux, Comblanchien and Corgoloin to the south. Côte de Nuits-Villages represents a fine introduction to the Côte’s great wines with all that it has in common to offer: elegance, distinction, and intense, fleshy fruit.
- TerroirThe grapes for our Côte de Nuits-Villages cuvée are sourced from the lieux-dit “Vignotte” in the village of Comblanchien, which is well-known for its marble quarries. Its calcareous clay soils lend suppleness and body to the wines.
- Vinification and ageingThe grapes were handpicked, sorted at the winery and completely destemmed before undergoing vinification. Very few punch-downs were necessary in this exceptionally rich vintage. Cuvaison lasted 15 days, then the wine was transferred into barrels (15% new oak) for a 14 months ageing period.
- Tasting notesPretty deep red color with a subtle orange hue that is already emerging. Superb fruity and seductive nose, evoking the delicacy of small red and black fruits (raspberry jam, blackcurrant, cherry) punctuated with a touch of vanilla. The palate is broad and rich, with melted and remarkably well-integrated tannins. We find a powerful and aromatic fruitiness, complemented by a warm and spicy note of blond tobacco. A true ambassador of the Côte de Nuits, this pleasurable, easy-drinking and expressive wine will pair wonderfully with a cuisine full of heart and character.
