Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Rues de Chaux

Floral, red fruit, gentle spiced notes.

Vinification	After about 5-6 days of pre-fermentation maceration, fermentation takes place and lasts about 15 days (no added yeasts). Pigeage and remontage are carried out as needed in order to preserve the elegance of the wine without an excess of extraction. After pneumatic pressing for several days in tanks, the wine is transferred by gravity to barrels (new wood not exceeding 25%).
Vineyard Soil	Reddish brown soil. Limestone over a layer of cracked bedrock. This plot is named Rues de Chaux – a reference to the rocky plateau upon which the vines are planted.
Tasting Notes	Floral, red fruit, and gentle spiced notes on the nose. Its structure becomes more supple over time and develops a beautiful aromatic complexity and great finesse.
Food Pairings	Pairs well with traditional Burgundian cuisine, such as roast chicken and sautéed mushrooms. Avoid pairing with fatty/creamy cheeses.
