Description

The Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru from Aux Champs Perdrix, produced by the renowned Domaine Alain Michelot, embodies the excellence of Burgundy. This red wine captivates with its aromatic complexity and structure. On the nose, it reveals a refined aromatic palette with notes of ripe red fruit, spices, and a slight touch of vanilla, a testament to its aging in French oak barrels. On the palate, the wine is rich and full, with a beautiful acidity that balances the intensity of the silky tannins.

This Premier Cru is perfect to enjoy now but can also be stored in the cellar for many years, evolving and improving over time. An ideal pairing would be with red meat dishes like grilled fillet or complex dishes based on mushrooms. The Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru from Aux Champs Perdrix is truly a gem for Burgundy wine enthusiasts with a strong territorial identity.

Winery history

Family-run for generations, the estate is often described as being in Nuits‑Saint‑Georges since around 1880. In recent decades technical management has passed to the daughter, Élodie Michelot, who has helped guide a gradual evolution toward more refined wines while preserving their traditional structure.
