Description
"Nuits-Saint-Georges Aux Saints-Juliens" from Domaine de Montille is a Pinot Noir from a parcel of just 0.58 hectares situated at the foot of the slope, heading towards Vosne-Romanée, below the Premier Cru Les Thorey. This wine owes its name to a 6th-century chapel now disappeared, replaced by a visible cross at the edge of the vineyard.
The vinification involves the use of 33% whole bunches to enhance freshness and spices, with fermentation in large wooden barrels and aging in barriques, 20% of which are new. Certified organic viticulture and biodynamic practices reflect the domain's commitment to respect for the terroir.
On tasting, it reveals lively aromas of raspberry and blackberry; the palate is medium-bodied, elegant and sensual, with a complex texture and a spicy freshness deriving from the careful management of the whole harvest.
Perfect pairing with herb-crusted lamb rack or noble poultry with light sauces.
