Nuits-Saint-Georges

Nuits-Saint-Georges: Power and Character in the Côte de Nuits

Located in the southern Côte de Nuits, Nuits-Saint-Georges is known for producing deep, structured red wines made exclusively from Pinot Noir. These wines express strength and individuality, shaped by complex terroirs.

A dual identity in terroir and style

The vineyards are split between northern parcels (elegant and refined) and southern ones (robust and intense). Clay-limestone soils with marl contribute to the wine’s solid framework and long aging potential.

Wines built for aging

With time, these reds develop layers of dark fruit, spice, leather and earthy notes. Initially firm in tannins, they evolve into smooth, velvety textures with age.

No Grand Cru, but great wines

While the appellation lacks official Grand Cru status, its many Premier Crus and high-quality village wines stand as strong ambassadors for Burgundy excellence.

Pairings and moments

Ideal with red meats, duck, game birds and aged cheeses. Also perfect with rich stews and dishes with bold flavors.
