The very best Pinot Noir grapes were used for this red wine from Domaine des Perdrix. It's no wonder, as only here can we find the finest red wines.

The estate covers 3.45 hectares, and the vines planted there benefit from predominantly clayey soils. The Domaine des Perdrix takes its name from the premier cru of Nuits-Saint-Georges Aux Perdrix, which the estate operates as a monopoly. It is one of three estates owned by the Devillard family (along with Château de Chamirey and Domaine de la Ferté in the Côte Chalonnaise). Since the Devillard family acquired the estate in 1996, they have been producing exceptional quality wines there. The family made carefully considered choices, notably installing a cooler cellar to allow for longer aging, but with less heated barrels. Yields are low, ripeness is optimal, and the work in the vineyard is remarkable. The estate's red wines are powerful yet retain their finesse.\n\n\n \nThe grapes are harvested by hand and transported in small boxes to the winery. This is where the vinification process, by talented winemaker Robert Vernizeau, begins. After harvest, the grapes are sorted, destemmed, and placed in barrels. The vinification process lasts between 15 and 20 days, after which the aging period begins. The wine is aged for 15 months in oak barrels, 40 percent of which are new.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The smell and taste of Nuits St Georges 1er Cru\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\n This results in an elegant wine with good acidity and freshness, soft red fruit, gentle tannins, creaminess, and a subtle finish.

Since 2005, his grandchildren have run Château de Chamirey, supported by their father, Bertrand Devillard. This cuvée was created to pay tribute to its history. It comes from the oldest vines of the famous Premier Cru 'Aux Perdrix', planted in 1922, and covers a size of 8 ouvrées. The word 'ouvrées' is the unit of measurement used in Burgundy for the surface area of ​​vines.\n\n\n \nThe grapes are carefully harvested and sorted by hand. Before alcoholic fermentation begins, a cold pre-fermentation takes place. Alcoholic fermentation is achieved with natural yeasts. After this, the wine is aged in traditional Burgundian barrels for fifteen months. Only French oak barrels are used for this.

Les Allots lies at the foot of the higher-lying premier cru parcels, on a gently sloping slope with a mix of red clay and chalky scree, which ensures good drainage and a pronounced mineral note. The vineyard is small, approximately 0.83 hectares, planted with Pinot Noir vines that are between 30 and 60 years old, producing few but highly concentrated grapes. The name Les Allots is said to derive from \"à l'eau,\" a reference to former humid conditions that, through clever drainage and good vineyard management, have been transformed into a healthy, well-draining parcel. The estate employs traditional Burgundian vineyard techniques such as plowing instead of herbicides, low yields, and hand harvesting to bring the purest expression of Nuits-Saint-Georges to the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 data-start=\"1599\" data-end=\"1624\"\u003e Vinification and maturation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-start=\"1626\" data-end=\"2870\"\u003eThe harvest for Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Allots 2021 is entirely hand-picked, with an initial selection in the vineyard to ensure only healthy, ripe bunches reach the fermenting cellar. Upon arrival, the grapes are rigorously sorted and, depending on the vintage, partially or completely destemmed to maintain the balance between freshness and structure. This is followed by a short cold maceration of approximately 3 to 4 days, a phase during which color and aromas are extracted from the skins without fermentation. The alcoholic fermentation itself is lengthy, typically around 25 to 28 days, with gentle pumping over and cap immersion to gradually extract tannins and flavors. The wine is then aged for approximately 14 to 16 months in oak barrels, using around 15 to 20% new wood to add depth without overpowering the fruit. Before bottling, it is only lightly filtered with white earth to preserve the structure as much as possible. In the challenging yet classic 2021 vintage, marked by night frost and low yields, this produced a Nuits-Saint-Georges with relatively modest alcohol, plenty of tension and a very precise expression of the terroir, ideal for lovers of elegant Côte de Nuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003ch2 data-start=\"2872\" data-end=\"2895\"\u003eGrape composition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-start=\"2897\" data-end=\"3210\"\u003e \u003cstrong data-start=\"2897\" data-end=\"2924\"\u003ePinot Noir – Les Allots\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2924\" data-end=\"2927\"\u003e The wine is 100% Pinot Noir from the lieu dit Les Allots, a small plot with old vines of 30 to 60 years old that produce few but very concentrated grapes and provide that characteristic combination of refined red fruit, spiciness and a compact but ripe tannin structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 data-start=\"3212\" data-end=\"3243\"\u003e Tasting notes and serving suggestions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \u003cp data-start=\"3245\" data-end=\"4473\"\u003eIn the glass, Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Allots 2021 reveals a fairly deep ruby ​​red color with a bright rim. The nose opens with aromas of black and red cherries, blackcurrant, and blackberry, complemented by violets, subtle spice, and a hint of wet earth and lightly smoky oak in the background. On the palate, the wine is taut and refined, with juicy red and dark fruit, a core of fresh acidity, and firm yet fine tannins typical of Nuits-Saint-Georges. The structure is straight and energetic, with a mineral note and a long finish revealing black cherry, spice, and a hint of forest floor, demonstrating that this 2021 vintage both has charm now and offers considerable aging potential. Ideally, serve it at around 14-16°C in a generous Burgundy glass to allow the bouquet to fully unfold. At the table, it pairs beautifully with classically prepared lamb chops, sirloin steak, or Côte de Boeuf, but also with duck breast, poultry with mushrooms, and slow-cooked veal or beef stews.
