Nuits-Saint-Georges 2022
Trade Tools
France / Burgundy
Nuits-Saint-Georges is a large appellation in the Côte de Nuits surrounding the town of the same name. Soils are varied and typically feature unique blue-grey clay and marl. The wines are typically full and chewy with substantial tannic structure which bodes well for aging. This village level wine is sourced from several locations and blended to best represent the Nuits-St-Georges full-bodied style. All fruit is hand harvested, destemmed, and fermented with natural yeasts.
Harvest Note
2024 was a hot and dry growing season which was saved by significant rain in June. This allowed the vines to withstand summer heat
and drought and led to ideal sanitary conditions and a modest yield yet concentrated vintage.
Tasting Note
This is a full-bodied and robust red wine. Initial aromas of damp earth and leafy underbrush quickly give way to deep red fruit and spice notes. The structure is imposing and becomes more open with aeration.
