WINE DESCRIPTION

Domaine Jean Chauvenet Les Perrières Nuits Saint-Georges 1er Cru is a meticulously crafted Burgundy from one of the region’s most storied appellations. Sourced from a 23-are plot of old vines planted in 1935, this premier cru vineyard lies on stony, well-drained soils beneath a quarry, fostering early ripening and exceptional concentration. The winemaking process reflects tradition and precision, with manual harvesting, full destemming, and careful fermentation in concrete vats to enhance phenolic extraction and color. Aged in French oak barrels (25% new) for optimal refinement, the wine is bottled unfiltered to preserve its purity. This elegant expression of Nuits-Saint-Georges showcases the terroir’s finesse and complexity, making it a collector’s delight.
