This wine has a beautiful, bright, clear ruby colour and a very elegant bouquet with intense aromas of fresh red fruits, a light woodiness and hints of blackcurrant buds. There is a nice acidity on the palate with very silky tannins and a long, luxurious finish.

The fruit for this wine comes from the on Nuits-Saint-Georges village on the South – East facing 1.76 hectare plot “Petit Chaillot” which is located on the Premeaux-Prissey side. Soils here are clay – limestone and very stony. Vines are on average 60 years old and they are Guyot trained. They produce very small bunches of Pinot Noir grapes with very thick skins; a sign that the wine will have great concentration.

Jean-Claude Boisset is a family-owned wine company founded in 1961. Jean-Claude’s first parcel of land was located in Gevrey-Chambertin and today the company is based in Les Ursulines, a former convent in Nuits-Saint-Georges, and run by his children Jean-Charles and Nathalie. In 2018, they opened a new state-of-the-art winery, which reflects their modern, technical approach to winemaking. The wines have been made by Grégory Patriat since 2002. He previously worked as head viticulturalist and assistant winemaker at the legendary Domaine Leroy, and has brought a detailed, vineyard-led approach to Jean-Claude Boisset
