Les Saint-Georges - Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru - Red - 2018 :

 

Premier Cru Excellence: Les Saint-Georges

The CHARLOPIN NUITS SAINT GEORGES LES SAINT GEORGES ROUGE is a classic, age-worthy Pinot Noir hailing from the distinguished 'Les Saint-Georges' climat in Nuits-Saint-Georges-a vineyard widely regarded as having Grand Cru potential.

From the cellars of Domaine Philippe Charlopin-Parizot, this wine showcases the robust character of the appellation, delivering a powerful structure balanced by refined aromatic depth.

Tasting Notes

• Colour: Deep, intense crimson with a hint of purple.
• Nose: A profound and concentrated aroma profile of dark berries (cassis, blackberry) and ripe cherry, developing with bottle age into complex notes of forest floor, game, leather, and a hint of sweet oak spice.
• Palate: Muscular and full-bodied, the wine boasts a firm but smooth tannic backbone. It is a wine of great vinosity, concentration, and remarkable balance, underpinned by the distinct minerality of the limestone and clay soils.
• Finish: Long, compelling, and built to last, promising decades of development.

Food Pairing & Serving

A wine of this calibre deserves a Sunday centrepiece. Decant for a minimum of two hours (if young) and serve at 16°C (60°F) to allow its full complexity to unfold.
