RATINGS

92-94The Wine Advocate

...rich and dramatic, bursting with aromas of cassis and cherries mingled with hints of violets, exotic spices and raw cocoa. Medium to full-bodied, layered and velvety, it's gourmand and enveloping, with lively acids, superb concentration and a long, resonant finish.

92-94Vinous / IWC

...exquisite bouquet with beautifully defined, minerally red fruit...palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, an almost citric bead of acidity with a lively and sustained finish. Wonderful.

REGION

France, Burgundy, Côte d'Or, Côte de Nuits-Villages, Nuits-St.-Georges, Aux Chaignots

Aux Chaignots is a 13-acre Premier Cru vineyard in the Nuits-Saints-Georges appellation, in Burgundy’s Cote-de-Nuits. Because there are no Grand Cru vineyards in Nuits-Saints-Georges, the appellation’s considerable reputation rests on its excellent Premier Crus. Aux Chaignots is in the northern part of the appellation, where the soil is limestone mixed with gravel. Burgundy writer Clive Coates notes that the wines from these northern Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Crus are “rich, full and elegant.”

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.
