Terroir
Clay and limestone. Located at the South of Nuits-Saint-Georges in the Premeaux-Prissey area. Vines are over 30 years old.
Winemaking & Maturation
Hand-picked, the grapes have been vatted for 18 days. After fermentation, the wine was matured in oak casks for 14 months (25% new barrels).
Wine description
It has a deep ruby colour with purple nuances. On the nose, powerful aromas of black fruit and liquorice appear first, then hazelnut. Fruit aromas are enhanced by a good tannic structure. Well-structured, it has a long finish.
Wine & Food
To be matched with venison such as wild duck, or mature cheese.
Ageing potential
At its best after 5 to 7 years, and over 10 years for the great vintages.
