The wine region of Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits
Cool high-altitude sister (300-500 m) west of the Cote de Nuits: signature Pinot Noir as red — lively and fruity with notes of cherry, raspberry, redcurrant, wild strawberry and a floral touch, supple tannins and the signature freshness of altitude, accessible young. Chardonnay as a taut, mineral white (citrus, green apple, white flowers, flint), preserved acidity. Aligote as a complement. AOC (1961), 16 villages, limestone and marl on slopes, cooler climate than the Cote, ages 3-6 years.
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: INAO glass
Glass adapted to wine tasting, created in the 1970s by the Institut national des appellations d'origine. At the time, it had the advantage of offering a standardised tool to all tasters. It is characterized by a wide base that allows for good ventilation and a narrow mouth (opening of the glass) to concentrate the aromas. Many high-performance glasses have been created based on this model.
