Terroir of Nuits-Saint-Georges appellation
This French town is in the Côte d'Or department in the Burgundy region. Although it has only 310 ha of vineyards, it is of considerable importance as it boasts 41 top-quality Premiers Crus vineyards. Pinot noir is the main grape variety used in Nuits-Saint-Georges. It produces young red wines with beautiful aromas of red fruit, floral notes and a hint of liquorice. After a few years' cellaring, these wines have a muscular, structured structure with scents of undergrowth, fur and leather. The white wines are pale gold in colour, fairly alcoholic, with an expressive bouquet of white flowers and honey.
The terroir of this appellation is divided into two parts. The northern part borders Vosne-Romanée. The southern part covers part of Nuits-Saint-Georges and Premeaux. The soil in the northern part consists of stony alluvium at the top of the slopes and silty soils in the lower parts. In the southern sector, the terroir is filled with deep limestone and marl soils. The climate faces east or south-east

-Prieuré Roch: Henri-Frederick Roch, a member of the Leroy family, created this estate in 1988. He adopts organic and biodynamic viticulture with minimal intervention. The portfolio of this 14-hectare estate includes Grands Crus, highly reputed Premiers Crus and top-of-the-range village wines. Its Clos-de-Vougeot and Chambertin-Clos-de-Bèze Grands Crus can fetch astronomical prices. These are stunning, highly vibrant, energetic wines with pronounced aromas of juicy red fruit, spices, cinnamon and mineral notes. On the palate, they are full-bodied, with generous fruit and a refined, balanced finish, free from heavy tannins.
-Georges Noellat: this 5.5 hectare estate covers some of the finest vineyards in Vosnée-Romanée and Nuits-Saint-Georges. It produces prestigious wines in the Premiers Crus and Grands Crus appellations. Its style of red wine is one with a beautiful, lively colour and a bouquet of a variety of fine red fruits mingling with spices. On tasting, the fruit is polished, delicate, precise, elegant, velvety and full of energy. We have several bottles on special offer of Grands Echezeaux and Nuits-Saint-Georges from this cult estate.
-Henri Jayer: this winemaker began producing wines under his own name in the 1950s. His 3 ha vineyard includes parcels of Grands crus, Premiers crus and village wines. His Grands Crus are distinguished by their deep red colour, with a bouquet of chocolate, cherry and leather aromas. They express themselves on the palate with complex flavours of fruit, truffles, earthy notes and a long citrus finish. A must-taste!
-Domaine Leroy: The Leroy Empire is divided between Maison Leroy in Auxey-Duresses, Domaine d'Auvenay and Domaine Leroy. This 23-hectare estate is undoubtedly one of the largest producers of red wines in the Burgundy region. It has a number of parcels of Grand crus, Premier crus and village wines. The Grand Crus from this biodynamically farmed estate have a sensual character, with aromas of red cherries, black fruits, leather and a subtle minerality. The white wines exude exotic fruit scents such as grapefruit and mango, with hints of honey and mushroom.
-Méo Camuzet: this wine estate also has Grand Cru and Premier Cru sites in Nuits-Saint-Georges and Vosnée-Romanée. The estate covers 14 hectares of vineyards. Its Grands Crus are appreciated for their delicate concentration of aromas and the purity of their fruit.
-Perrot Minot: the origins of this wine estate date back to the 19th century. Its vineyards also extend to Grand Cru and Premier Cru sites in Chambolle-Musigny, Vosnée-Romanée and Gevrey-Chambertin. Its Grands Crus have a varied style: powerful, masculine, a little austere with an earthy minerality and a blend of red and black fruit aromas or a fairly effervescent bouquet of red fruit, orange, sage and tea. The palate is often intense or medium-bodied with fine tannins and exceptional length.
-Jean Grivot: the 15 hectares of this estate are planted with wines from a variety of appellations, including a dozen Premiers Crus and 3 Grand Crus. The estate produces a range of red wines renowned for their deep, aromatic nose and round, succulent flavours buffered by citrus-tinged acidity on the delicious finish.
-Domaine Cathiard: this family estate, created in the 1930s, has 4.4 hectares of vineyards spread over 11 parcels, including a parcel of Romanée-Saint-Vivant and numerous holdings in Vosnée-Romanée. The estate produces a number of cuvées, including Premiers Crus and Grands Crus. 99% of this winemaker's production is exported. As a result, its wines are highly prized on the market and fetch high prices, like the Romanée Saint Vivant 2010 on sale on this site. This wine is the purest and freshest in his range. It bursts with beautiful aromas of succulent red fruit, silky tannins, complex spicy notes and fragrant flowers. Its wines are exceptionally pure when young. They are also characterised by balance and elegance, with a harmonious, delicate structure and a long finish.
-Jacques Frédéric Mugnier: the fifth generation of the family currently manages this 14-hectare estate based at Château de Chambolle-Musigny. This great name in Burgundy produces Grands Crus and Premiers Crus renowned for their wonderfully elegant noses with aromas of cedar, spices, red fruit and violets. On the palate, sweet, ripe strawberries with a fleshy texture.
-Domaine Confuron: created in 1731, this estate has a vast vineyard of 130 hectares, including 12 hectares of Grand Crus and 74 hectares of Premiers Crus. Its red Premiers Crus have a wonderfully fruity character with earthy, spicy and liquorice notes accompanied by generous, structured, mineral flavours and moderately dry tannins. They have good length and interesting ageing potential. Take a tour of our website to take advantage of the many bottles on special offer from this producer.
-Liger Belair: this relatively new wine producer owns land in both Premiers Crus and Grands Crus vineyards. It follows biodynamic principles. Its red wines have aromas of smoke, meat, cherry, blackcurrant and Asian spices. On the palate, they reveal sweet berries, chalky minerality, refined tannins and a long finish. Premium wines from this producer are available on our website. Take advantage of this promotion to build up your wine cellar with some exceptional Grands Crus!
