Discover the grape variety: Pinot noir
Pinot noir is an important red grape variety in Burgundy and Champagne, and its reputation is well known! Great wines such as the Domaine de la Romanée Conti elaborate their wines from this famous grape variety, and make it a great variety. When properly vinified, pinot noit produces red wines of great finesse, with a wide range of aromas depending on its advancement (fruit, undergrowth, leather). it is also the only red grape variety authorized in Alsace. Pinot Noir is not easily cultivated beyond our borders, although it has enjoyed some success in Oregon, the United States, Australia and New Zealand.

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: Phenolic ripeness
A distinction is made between the ripeness of sugars and acids and the ripeness of tannins and other compounds such as anthocyanins and tannins, which will bring structure and colour. Grapes can be measured at 13° potential without having reached this phenolic maturity. Vinified at this stage, they will give hard, astringent wines, without charm.
