The commune produces almost exclusively red wines, however there is a limited production of whites. The Nuits-Saint-Georges red wines are robust and elegant. They require some years of aging to reflect the finest expressions of the Pinot Noir. The name of Nuits-Saint-Georges is known worldwide, Apollo XV carried this wine into space and even gave its name to a lunar crater.

Professional Scores

Though ripe and broad on the palate, this red is also bright, featuring black cherry, black currant, violet and iron notes. Firms up on the finish with assertive tannins, but they stay in line. Delivers a spice- and mineral-tinged aftertaste. Drink now through 2032. 650 cases made, 200 cases imported.
