Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Corvées Pagets La Vougeraie 2021

The wine

The Nuits-Saint-Georges parcel this wine comes from is located on a slope in the commune of Premeaux-Prissey. It is east-facing and Domaine de la Vougeraie owns 0.3 hectares of it. The soil is pebbly here, with red-tinged, clay-rich earth.
The domain works organically and biodynamically to encourage biodiversity and to give the best fruit possible. The result is an elegant cuvée with notes of fruit and leather. This is a generous wine to pair with a dish like game in sauce.
