It displays an attractive, bright ruby-red color of medium intensity with subtle violet reflections. The nose is dominated by aromas of red cherry, raspberry, and wild strawberry, accompanied by dried violets, rosehip, and delicate herbaceous notes of thyme. Chalky nuances and a light spicy background imparted by the oak complete an elegant and fresh profile. On the palate, it is juicy and medium-bodied, with a silky texture and fine, chalky tannins. Notes of pomegranate, blueberry, and cherry emerge, balanced by a lively and well-integrated acidity. The finish is long, fresh, and precise, with a pleasant saline minerality.
Georges Noëllat Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits 2023 is a dry red wine made exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes. Coming from the renowned Georges Noëllat winery, located in Vosne-Romanée, this wine reflects the essence of the Côte de Nuits with precision and sophistication.
The winery, which owns approximately 10 hectares in prestigious areas such as Nuits-Saint-Georges, Morey-Saint-Denis, and Gevrey-Chambertin, also cultivates another 10 hectares through lease agreements. It is particularly noted for its vineyards in the renowned Echézeaux and Grands Echézeaux grands crus.
Pinot Noir production begins with manual harvesting, followed by partial destemming and cold maceration. Fermentation is carried out with natural yeasts and gentle pumping over. Depending on the vintage, between 30% and 100% new oak is used. The wine is aged for 14 to 20 months and bottled without fining or filtration, preserving its purity.
