The wine region of Nuits-Saint-Georges
Emblematic south of the Côte de Nuits: signature Pinot Noir as the exclusive king red - intense purple with mauve tints, vigorous and full-bodied with notes of ripe red fruits (cherry, raspberry), flowers (rose, violet), liquorice, undergrowth and a spicy touch evolving to leather and earth, firm structure and assertive character. No Grand Cru but 41 renowned Premiers Crus (Vaucrains, Saint-Georges). AOC (1936) between limestone marls south and stony alluvium north of the Meuzin.
The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
The word of the wine: Disgorging (champagne)
This is the evacuation of the deposit formed by the yeasts during the second fermentation in the bottle, by opening the bottle. The missing volume is completed with the liqueur de dosage - a mixture of wine and cane sugar - before the final cork is placed. For some years now, some producers have been replacing this sugar with rectified concentrated musts (concentrated grape juice) which give excellent results. A too recent dosage (less than three months) harms the gustatory harmony of the champagne.
