Côte de Nuits-Villages Rouge

Pinot Noir grapes dominate in the Côte de Nuits and our wine is a unique cuvée called Les Perrières. The hand-picked grapes undergo a traditional vinification that starts with three days of cold maceration, which helps extract colour and tannin from the skins before a 15-day fermentation. The wine is then matured for a minimum of eight months in oak barrels, 20% of which are new each year.

With the aid of Vincent and Christine we select those barrels which in our opinion have produced the best wine and these are then blended together to create our exclusive Côte de Nuits-Villages rouge Les Perrières. The resulting wine has ripe red and black fruit flavours with nuances of liquorice, and that typical fine Burgundian bouquet of undergrowth and damp fur. It ages very well and is usually ready to drink four or five years after the vintage.
