RATINGS

94+ The Wine Advocate

Aromas of raspberries, rose petals, peonies, orange rind and sweet spices... ...medium to full-bodied, bright and elegant wine that's seamless, vibrant and charming, with superb depth at the core, beautifully refined tannins and a long, mouthwatering finish. As in 2020, the Feusselottes is one of the high points of the range.

A pretty, very fresh and attractively perfumed nose features notes of abundant spice elements that add breadth to the aromas of plum, red raspberry and tea. The round and velvet-textured flavors possess good volume and a bit more concentration while exhibiting a more elegant mouthfeel and particularly so on the lingering and saline-inflected finish where the only reproach is again a touch of warmth...

93John Gilman

...beautifully complex and elegant in profile. The nose delivers scents of black cherries, black plums, gamebird, a beautifully complex base of soil, very pretty spice tones and a deft framing of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and already nicely suave on the attack, with a sappy core, excellent transparency and grip, seamless tannins and lovely balance on the complex and focused finish.

REGION

France, Burgundy, Côte d'Or, Côte de Nuits Villages, Chambolle-Musigny, Les Feusselottes

Côte de Nuits is the northern part of the Côte d’Or and it includes the most famous vineyards and wine communes in the world. There are more Grand Cru appellations in the Côte de Nuits than anywhere else in Burgundy. Of the fourteen communes, or villages in the Côte de Nuits, six produce Grand Cru wines. They are Gevrey-Chambertin, Morey-St.-Denis, Chambolle-Musigny, Vougeot, Flagey-Échezeaux and Vosne-Romanee. Some of the vineyards within the Côte de Nuits are tiny, which adds to their prestige. The fabled Grand Cru vineyard La Romanee is barely two square acres. Altogether there are twenty-four Grand Cru vineyards. The region takes its name from the village of Nuits-Saint-Georges. Côtes de Nuits produces mostly reds from Pinot Noir, and the wines have been in demand for centuries. During the 18th century King Louis XIV’s physician recommended that for his health the king only drink wines from Nuits-Saint-Georges. Like most of Burgundy, the soils of the Côte de Nuit can vary greatly from one vineyard to another, though most are a base soil of limestone mixed with clay, gravel and sand.

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir, 1er (Premier) Cru

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
