Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Domaine rated (guide 2021) 4*Stars (Top-quality producers, the glories of French winegrowing)
About the domain :
Run by the Devillard family, who also own Château de Chamirey in Mercurey, the vineyard is located on remarkable terroirs in the south of the Côte de Nuits, and its production is vinified in the spirit of modern wines, seeking high grape maturity and deep, voluptuous textures. The results have been convincing in recent years, starting with the communal appellations, with very fine juices when we knew them to be rather solid. All the possible fullness of 2018 has been captured here, and these will be wines for laying down, or even very long laying down for the nuits and the échezeaux. Also a lovely red Burgundy.

About the wine:
Tasted on barrel. Rich black fruits with a tarry note on the nose that might make you think it was Nebbiolo rather than Pinot. Wonderfully perfumed palate with a vegetal note that leaves a long leaves a long, satisfying aftertaste, finishing with flowery juniper berry notes. To be enjoyed between 2022 and 2037.
