Process & Profile

Renowned winemaker David Duband employs a combination of traditional Burgundian methods and innovative techniques to create wines of remarkable purity and depth. The grapes are hand-harvested from meticulously maintained, organically farmed vineyards. The winemaking process emphasizes whole-cluster fermentation (ranging from 60% to 90%) and minimal intervention, using low levels of sulfur and aging in a mix of new and mature oak barrels. This approach enhances the unique characteristics of each parcel of grapes, bringing out the essence of the terroir. The Nuits-Saint-Georges wine balances power and finesse, blending grapes from vineyards primarily located on the Vosne-Romanée border, such as La Charmotte and Aux Saints-Juliens. The result is a structured yet approachable red wine that reflects the diversity of the region's soils and climate.

Velvety tannins and a refined acidity create a long, clean finish.
