Henri de Villamont, Nuits-Saint-Georges

Red wine | Nuits-Saint-Georges AC

A nighttime magic in your glass!
Nuits-Saint-Georges is an appellation of the Côte de Nuits known for its dark and powerful wines. This Pinot Noir opens with subtle aromas of black fruits, dried flowers and tobacco, while the palate is full and tannic. The Nuits-Saint-Georges appellation turns out to be tender after a few years of aging... but if you can't resist and open it now, give it a good Decanterer!

Subtle, with character and a very round body.
