"The perfect balance
A fine introduction to the red villages of the Côte de Beaune. This wine is particularly expressive, fresh and fruity, with magnificent ageing potential. On the palate, there are hints of spice and blueberry, with subtle oak and an almost saline finish. A well-balanced wine to keep!

3*Star rating (High-quality production, a benchmark in its sector)
About the domain :
More than a novelty, a rebirth. The return of this old house feels good. The man who has revived it is Laurent Delaunay. He is the founder's great-grandson, and has established himself as a benchmark for Languedoc pleasure wines in supermarkets. It's in Burgundy, on his home turf, that he once again displays the full extent of his talent and vision. We particularly recommend the nuits-saint-georges cuvées, vinified with extreme care and attention to tannin extraction, resulting in voluptuous, tender wines that are always upright. The entire range is beyond reproach.
