Eye: Peony-red coloration, very bright and shiny. Nose: The first nose, rather earthy , is quite characteristic of the southern part of the Côtes-de-Nuîts. After a quick aeration, aromas of fresh fruits (raspberry, blackberry) are taking over. Palate: The refined and polished tannins give a great elegance to this wine. The finish stretches on a mentholated freshness.

Earthiness

To preserve their integrity, grapes are carefully harvested and sorted out by hand. Before beginning the alcoholic fermentation we make a cold prefermentation during 4 to 6 days to work on the phelonic component’s extraction. Grapes are previously partially destemmed. Then full maceration lasts for 15 days during which we’ll use only pigeages (punching the cap). Intensity and numbers are lead to the concentration of tannins, perfumes and colour. Alcoholic fermentation is realized with natural yeasts.

Domaine des Perdrix

Le Domaine des Perdrix was not a renowned estate until the Devillard family took its management in 1996. Robert Parker says about this acquisition that it proves the existence of undiscovered great quality terroirs among the Grands Terroirs of Côte de Nuits. The quality of the vineyards their rigorous management and vinification have established the Domaine des Perdrix as a renowned Domaine one of the best among the Grands Vins de Bourgogne.
