2022 Nuits-St-Georges, Aux Allots, Domaine Bertrand et Axelle Machard de Gramont

In Aux Allots we find the domaine’s oldest vines, though how old precisely is unknown. The family bought the vineyard which sits on the Vosne-Romaéee side of the village in 1969. It had been planted long before then, although the exact date has been lost to history. This wine has an enthralling depth of plum and berry fruit, with a minty lift on the nose, and just a hint of licorice adding a further dimension. Textural and complex, this is an outstanding Nuits-St-Georges.

Tasting notes

The 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges Aux Allots comes from just under a hectare of vines bordering Les Chaignots. It has slightly darker fruit on the nose than the Hauts Pruliers; this feels very cohesive. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins and quite structured with a strict, slightly grippy finish. It should just round out before bottling.
