Cote de Nuits Wines
It can be easy to describe Burgundy’s soil by just mentioning the trademark limestone, but regions like the Côte de Nuits showcase how varied the terroir can truly be, once you dig deeper and get into detail. Every part of the soil makes its presence known in the flavor of the wine, making it very hard to find two bottles from different producers that feel similar. Côte de Nuits is primarily known for mouth-watering red wine, bottles majestic enough to be featured in every wine geek’s collection. If you ever manage to schedule a trip to this place, something within you will change forever as you become immersed in the culture of these fine people.Sampling a Côte de Nuits bottle is often like biting into fresh fruit. The crunch is there, as is the raw, vibrant intensity. The elegant and calculated spice within the bottles brings out something primal in the wine, as it swirls in your mouth and glass, drowning you in the earthy flavors of French culture and cuisine. These seductive wines leave anyone shaken, as their entire understanding of what makes a wine good is stirred up, and they rediscover their love of fine wine again, and again.
Naturally, Côte de Nuits wines are a joy to collect. They’re unique, they’re flavorful and bold, and they carry great value for those of you with an entrepreneurial streak. Save them for special situations, moments you want history to remember forever, as these bottles can singlehandedly turn a regular gathering into an event your guests will think back to for years to come.
