Information
Domaine de Perdrix owes its name to the Nuits-Saint-Georges Aux Perdrix Premier Cru, which is run soley by this domain. This is one of the first vineyards that the Devillard family owned along with the Château de Chamirey and Domaine de la Garenne and Domaine de la Ferté in Burgundy.
As well as superb plots in Côtes de Nuits and Nuits premier crus, the domain produces Vosne and Echézeaux wines. Since the Devillard family took over the domain in 1996, the wines have continued to gain in definition. The family made wise choices such as installing a cooler cellar to allow longer ageing periods with fewer toasted barriques.
The yields are low, the maturity is optimal and the sustainable farming is remarkable. The domain's red wines are powerful whilst still very refined, and they have remarkable ageing potential.
This Côteaux Bourguignons is crafted from 100% Pinot Noir with the grapes coming from vines that are around 35 years old and located in the Côte de Nuits. Once they are well ripened, the grapes are harvested by hand and taken to the winery. The produced wine is aged for 7 months in barrels that have already used once or twice so that the wine doesn't pick up too many woody characteristics. It is then transferred to stainless-steel vats where it spends a further two months.
Once in the glass, you'll discover one of the purest Pinot Noirs on the market. Its nose is packed full of ripe, small red fruits, cherries and cherry pits. The ample and fresh palate reflects the finesse and fruitiness of the nose. It's wonderfully silky and the tannins are already integrated.
Aurore Devillard recommends that this wine is served at 12 to 14 degrees Celsius and paired with a charcuterie board, stuffed vegetables or chocolate desserts.
