Vin Nuits Saint Georges 1er cru “Les Saint Georges” Domaine Chicotot

“Saint Georges” iron fist in a velvet glove velours

Brown soils, deep limestone and very stony. This was the first plot to be planted with vines in the year 1000.

Tasting

The aromatic range plays on black fruits (blueberries, blackberries) and spices mixed with more animal notes (musk and fur), especially for the somewhat older vintages. This is a powerful, complex wine with a nice structure that lets it face the years without fear.

Being full-bodied, this Saint Georges goes well with spicy dishes, game (either marinated or not), tarts, meat dishes with mushroom sauces, and ripened cheeses.
