Slake your THIRST for Nuits-Saint-Georges!
The southern-most village of Cˆote de Nuits with village status, Nuits-Saint-Georges has a huge diversity of climats ranging from Fred Mugnier's Clos de la Maréchale in southern Premeaux to Aux Boudots, adjacent to Vosne-Romanée's famous Malconsorts vineyard.
Conventional wisdom has the southern vineyards producing a more rustic and earthy expression of Nuits, with the Vosne side exhibiting the more refined textures and aromas of the neighboring village. Is that a truism? We'll answer that question and much more as we take a deep dive into the terroir of Nuits-Saint-Georges.
We encourage participants to open one of the featured wines below or a Nuits-Saint-Georges of their choice to share their impressions with the audience.
