"A treasure trove of red berries to store in the cellar!"
“A slightly crimson color. Aromas of tart dark red fruits and a lovely salty note reminiscent of Nuits pepper. Firm and pure, the tannins are so fine that they are barely noticeable, yet they shape the fruit. Dry, rich, and perfectly balanced.” (Jancis Robinson 2023).

Rated estate (2021 guide): 4* Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)
About the estate:
Run by the Devillard family, who also own Château de Chamirey in Mercurey, the vineyard is situated on remarkable terroirs in the southern part of the Côte de Nuits, and its wines are crafted in the spirit of modern winemaking, seeking high grape ripeness and deep, voluptuous textures. The results have been impressive in recent years, even at the village level, with wines featuring very refined juices where we previously found them rather robust. The full potential of the 2018 vintage has been captured here; these will be wines for aging, and indeed for very long aging in the case of the Nuits and Échezeaux. There is also a delightful red Burgundy.

Wine rated (2022 guide) 92/100
About the wine:
This wine displays a charming finesse and a lively, spirited elegance right from the first sip. There is a slight hint of reduction (which should disappear after racking) and aromas of pomegranate, raspberry, and mint. The texture is silky and refined, and the tannins are very well integrated.
