It is the fruit of a blending of 5 climates: the Plateaux, Belles Croix, Fleurières, Brûlées, and the Chaliots, for a surface area of 2 hectares. All of these parcels are located at the south of Nuits Saint Georges, at the start of the hillside, on deep soils, with a blending of clay, alluvium and limestone gravels. These wines are pure and generous, and need a few years before being tasted, to show their true potential.
A markedly earthier nose reveals its aromas of both red and dark berries and a whiff of sauvage character. The sleek, delicious and vibrant medium-bodied flavors possess a beguiling mid-palate texture while exhibiting very good length on the youthfully austere but only mildly rustic finale. This should drink well young but age well too over the mid-term. Drink: 2028+
