The 2023 vintage offers beautiful ripeness while maintaining freshness and balance, ideal conditions to express Pinot Noir in a refined and generous style. The vinification is carefully conducted, with measured extractions to preserve the fruit and aromatic delicacy. The aging, sober and precise, supports the wine without marking it, allowing the purity of the grape variety and the terroir’s signature to shine through. This cuvée aims to be accessible while remaining serious and typically Burgundian.
On tasting, the Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits 2023 charms with its fresh and elegant expression. The nose reveals aromas of crisp red fruits, cherry and raspberry, highlighted by fine floral notes.

The whole is harmonious, precise, and very easy to drink, with a clean and delicate finish. This wine pairs ideally with white meats, roasted poultry, fine charcuterie, or simple and convivial cuisine.
