With its deep ruby color, our Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru "Aux Murgers" 2021 is a balanced wine. The nose is full of cherry and other red fruits, highlighted by delicate spicy notes. The palate is generous, with notes of blackcurrant bud and clove. The finish is long-lasting yet subtle.
"Aux Murgers", meaning a "pile of stones", is one of the most northerly Premiers Crus of the Nuits-Saint-Georges appellation. Thanks to its proximity to the nearby prestigious village of Vosne-Romanée, this marl and limestone-rich vineyard produces powerful and seductive wines.
Hand-harvested grapes. Weeks-long maceration, minimal pumping-over and punching-down. Pressing in pneumatic press. Placed in French oak barrels for aging on fine lees. Light filtration before bottling.
