A Masterclass in Nuits-St-Georges

Discover the elegance and depth of Domaine Alain Michelot’s Nuits-St-Georges Vieilles Vignes 2021, a cuvée that captures the soul of one of Burgundy’s most revered Pinot Noir regions. From the domaine’s oldest vines, this wine offers a poised and expressive interpretation of Nuits-St-Georges, where purity, structure and terroir come together in remarkable harmony.

The village of Nuits-St-Georges, nestled along the Côte de Nuits, is celebrated for producing wines of intensity and finesse. Its limestone- and clay-rich soils lend a subtle mineral thread, while the gentle southeast-facing slopes allow the grapes to ripen with grace. The result is a measured balance of ripeness, freshness and complexity—qualities that shine through beautifully in the 2021 vintage. Domaine Alain Michelot, a long-established family estate, upholds traditional techniques and thoughtful vineyard care to preserve both character and authenticity. Their Vieilles Vignes bottling is a testament to this philosophy, offering depth and nuance that only mature vines can provide.

On the nose, the wine reveals refined aromas of raspberry, cherry and wild strawberry, layered with hints of rose petal, forest floor and delicate spice. The palate follows with silk-lined tannins and bright, lively acidity, holding generous fruit at its core while allowing savoury undertones and subtle oak to add dimension. The finish is long, elegant and quietly persistent, promising both immediate pleasure and rewarding development with cellaring. Serve at 16–18°C after a short decant, and pair with roasted duck, beef bourguignon or a selection of soft and hard cheeses to highlight its depth and complexity.
