Côte de Nuits
The Côte de Nuits is Burgundy at its most famous, with double-barrelled villages that are known the world over – Gevrey-Chambertin, Vosne-Romanée, Chambolle-Musigny. From Dijon in the north to just south of Nuits St Georges are 24 Grand Cru vineyards and over 100 Premier Crus. It’s a very red part of Burgundy with only small productions of white and rosé.

Riche volume on the attack, and then the freshness of the vintage comes behind, tightening the tannins on the finish.

Pinot Noir.
A vineyard in the north east sector of Fixin, on clay and blue marl - very old vines planted by the boys' grandfather in the early 1960s. They use 20-25% whole bunches here, and are careful with the extraction as it's in...(read more)

Still in barrel. Medium deep purple. This is more discreet than Vignes Marie but will have additional finesse. Currently backward, because not yet racked. Stylish and with both weight and length. I am impressed with this...(read more)

Transparent crimson. Really quite a rich nose with real structure and fruit in the middle. Reminds me of Gypsy Cream biscuits which probably don’t exist any more – or have certainly been renamed. Long, subtle and, in the...(read more)

From the north side of the village. The amplitude of a deep clay soil, which retained water well in this dry vintage. Solidly-built, it has the freshness of the vintage giving good drive.

Romain used 100% whole bunches here for the first time on a limestone soil. Rich volume, a mid-palate sucrosity and a plummy depth - and then a saline lift from the whole bunches. The vines are a massal selection from Po...(read more)

Romain explains that 'Champ Perdrix' or 'field of partridges' almost certainly comes from the rather less picturesque 'champ pierreux' or 'stony field'. It's quite a common name for vineyards on the Côte...(read more)

Broad flavours. Quite dry. There's good depth of dark berry fruit here but for now it is firm and needs a little time to soften up.

Riper yet than the Champs Perdrix, there's depth and harmony to the nose, and the palate is rich and full with fine tannins and excellent volume and length.

.
A cuvée of quite young vines (15 years old), but good plants on a good limestone-rich soil. It's lifted, juicy, then with a certain complexity and a touch of liquorice as well as the fine red fruit profile. 'almos...(read more)
