Producer

S.A.R.L. Bernard Perrin

Les Saint-Georges is the most revered vineyard site in the Nuits-Saint-Georges appellation and one of the most historic sites in Burgundy: vines were already planted here in 1000 AD. Herbal aromas, tarragon, sweet pipe tobacco, vanilla and cherries lead to a structured wine, well balanced with good depth and acidity and which is as smooth as velvet. Grapes were picked by hand, de-stemmed and then left to cold macerate before fermentation. Youthful, the 2018 needs some time to fully express itself.
