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.

2010 domaine georges noellat echezeaux grand cru Burgundy Red

I first saw a sample of the 2010 Echézeaux from Maxime Cheurlin last November, when the wine had just finished up its malo, and it was a bit disjointed from the secondary fermentation, but showing outstanding potential. I was very happy to have the chance to revisit it again in March, where it was absolutely singing. Maxime’s family’s parcel lies in the lieu à dit of Les Cruots and the vines are in excess of eighty years of age. These venerable old vines have produced a superb wine that shows no difficulty standing up to its one hundred percent new wood this year, soaring from the glass in a blaze of plums, black cherries, dark soil tones, woodsmoke, a touch of game and a generous base of spicy new wood. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very pure on that attack, with a rock solid core sappy fruit, tangy acids, ripe, well-integrated tannins and outstanding length and grip on the focused and nascently complex finish. This is a classic example of Echézeaux in the making, with the vintage’s beautiful transparency very much in evidence. A prodigious first vintage of Echézeaux.
