The wine region of Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru
Burgundy/cote-de-nuits/nuits-saint-georges">Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru wines are those produced under the most-stringent conditions of the Nuits-Saint-Georges appellation, exclusively from grapes grown in officially classified Premier Cru Vineyard sites. Nuits-Saint-Georges itself is a commune in the Cote de Nuits wine district of Burgundy. While the town does not boast any Grand Cru sites (unlike its neighbors), many of the 41 Premier Cru climats within its boundaries are considered to be amongst the finest in the district. A quarter of the appellation's Premier Cru sites are located within the commune of Premeaux-Prissey, just to the South of Nuits-Saint-Georges town.
The wine region of Burgundy
Bourgogne is the catch-all regional appellation title of the Burgundy wine region in eastern France ("Bourgogne" is the French name for Burgundy). Burgundy has a Complex and comprehensive appellation system; counting Premier Cru and Grand Cru titles, the region has over 700 appellation titles for its wines. Thus, Burgundy wines often come from one Vineyard (or several separate vineyards) without an appellation title specific to the region, Village or even vineyard. A standard Burgundy wine may be made from grapes grown in one or more of Burgundy's 300 communes.
The word of the wine: Bleeding
Old practice for red wines. As soon as the vat is filled with grapes, the tap is opened. A sweet but clear juice escapes from the vat (it can also be used to make rosé). The colour and density of the juice is enhanced, but it should not be overdone. Rarely more than 10% of the volume of a vat, otherwise you risk losing fruit and bringing in bitterness.
