Nuits-Saint-Georges
Nuits-Saint-Georges is one of the most famous of Burgundy's appellations and the wine is made from Pinot Noir grapes grown on limestone soil. Our exclusive Nuits-Saint-Georges is called Les Plantes au Baron after the vineyard which bears this name. It has a powerful bouquet of red fruits - notably cherry - a touch of spice, a hint of vanilla, and that typical Pinot Noir aroma that is so much more attractive than it sounds - damp undergrowth. It is fairly tannic, but with its smooth, velvety texture that carries the rich fruit onto the palate, it is an ideal wine to accompany hearty casseroles, roasts and medium strength cheeses. It also has very good ageing potential and may go on improving for up to 10 years if carefully cellared.
