The Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru "Les Saint Georges" 2021 by Domaine Chicotot is an iconic wine from the most prestigious cru in Nuits, often compared to a Grand Cru for its refinement. Grown on clay-limestone soils, this bright ruby red offers a fine bouquet of red cherry, raspberry, rose petals and subtle spices, with a mineral note reminiscent of flint. Aged for 18 months in oak barrels, it stands out for its lean and harmonious structure, silky tannins and a vibrant freshness typical of the 2021 vintage, with a persistent and pure finish. A classy Pinot Noir, ideal for an evolution that will make it memorable.
Production Method Organic, spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts in steel tanks for 15-20 days after 5-6 days of cold pre-fermentation maceration, maturation 18 months in French oak barrels (25% new), refinement in bottle for at least 6 months.
Pairings Volaille rôtie, mushroom tourte, mature cheeses
