Louis Jadot, Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru 2022

This is a full-bodied and robust red wine. Initial aromas of damp earth and leafy underbrush quickly give way to deep red fruit and spice notes. The structure is imposing and becomes more open with aeration.

Nuits-Saint-Georges is a large appellation in the Côte de Nuits surrounding the town of the same name. Soils are varied and typically feature unique blue-grey clay and marl. The wines are typically full and chewy with substantial tannic structure which bodes well for aging. This village level wine is sourced from several locations and blended to best represent the Nuits-St-Georges full-bodied style. All fruit is hand harvested, destemmed, and fermented with natural yeasts.

Founded in 1859, Maison Louis Jadot is one of the most famous wineries in Burgundy. Today, Maison Louis Jadot owns over 154 hectares of vineyards in Burgundy, with a focus on the potential of every Burgundy appellation, from Grand Cru to regional wines. The label of all wine bottles of the winery adorns the head of the mythological god of wine Bacchus.
