Description

The freshness and richness of a Burgundy red wine

The estate

Taken over in 1996 by the Devillard family, Domaine des Perdrix stands out as one of the most beautiful properties on the Côte de Nuits. Today at the head of a 15-hectare vineyard with more than half classified as Premier Cru and Grand Cru, the property watches over the exceptional terroirs of Vosne-Romanée, Nuits-Saint-Georges and Nuits-Saint -Georges “Aux Perdrix” Premier Cru, a virtual monopoly. Owners of a 1.14 hectare Échezeaux Grand Cru plot, the Devillards enjoy a diversity of extremely rare terroirs, especially bearing in mind that Burgundy only has 33 Grand Crus.

The wine

This Burgundy wine was designed to pay homage to history. It comes from the oldest vines of the famous Premier Cru Aux Perdrix, planted in 1922, occupying an area of 8 ouvrées. In Burgundy, an ouvrée is a unit of measurement specific to the vineyard, symbolizing the space that a winegrower could plough in one day, i.e. equivalent to 4.28 ares.

The vineyard

Located in Nuits-Saint-Georges, the vineyard, named Les 8 Ouvrées, stretches across 4.28 ares on soil mostly made up of clay.

Winemaking and ageing

This Nuits-Saint-Georges wine is the result of expert work in the vineyard and in the cellar: to guarantee quality, the grapes are carefully harvested and sorted by hand. Whole harvest vinification is then carried out, preceded by a pre-fermentation cold maceration of 4 to 6 days. A 15-day maceration follows, with punching down without pumping over. Fermentation is then carried out with indigenous yeasts. The press and free run juices are then carefully separated and aged separately.

Grape variety

Pinot Noir (100%)
