The 2021 Burgundy vintage experienced a difficult yet classic growing season with unpredictable weather—including spring frost and hailstorms which resulted in reduced yields. Yet, with meticulous vineyard management and selective harvesting, the wines produced are characteristically expressive and capture Burgundy’s exceptionally unique terroir.
Located in the heartland of Burgundy in the Côte de Nuits subregion, Nuits-Saint-Georges earned official AVA status in 1936. Divided in two by the town itself, Nuits-Saint-Georges’ vineyards are defined by deep marl-limestone soils in the south to pebbly alluvium near the Meuzin River in the north. These distinct soil compositions contribute to the unique character of the wines produced in the region.
Our debut Pinot Noir from this historic AVA was aged in 50% new French oak and alluringly melds graceful layers of red cherry, raspberry, dark chocolate, and orange blossom with subtle hints of rose and roasted almond. As the palate unfolds, seamless tannins and noteworthy acidity enhance the dramatic finish.
Fact of Note: Nuits-Saint-Georges lends its name to the Côte de Nuits in the northern Côte d’Or.
NESTLED IN THE CÔTE DE NUITS subregion of Burgundy, Nuits-Saint-Georges is synonymous with bold, character-driven Pinot Noir. The appellation’s unique terroir is shaped by limestone-rich soils and a continental climate, creating ideal conditions for growing exceptional Pinot Noir. These environmental factors yield wines with robust structure, layered dark fruit flavors, and distinctive earthy undertones.
