Nuits-Saint-Georges David Duband 2014
The wine
Nuits-Saint-Georges from Domaine David Duband originates from 1.5 hectares of 50-year-old Pinot Noir vines planted on east-facing marly limestone soils. The manual harvest is followed by a rigorous sorting process, and a vinification process that includes 80% whole bunches. The vatting period lasts 17 days, including five to seven punch downs and pump overs to extract the grape variety’s aromas and structure. Following a gentle pressing stage, the juices are left to settle for two weeks before being transferred to barrels (40% new and 60% one to three years old). The wine is aged for 14 months, racked into vats and left to rest for three months before bottling, without filtration or fining.
The bouquet reveals exquisite aromas of red and black fruit, with prominent notes of strawberry and white pepper. On the palate, the wine is rich, supported by prominent tannins that add depth and structure, making for an elegant, persistent taste experience.
The domaine was founded in 1991 by the businessman François Feuillet, the owner of the Trigano brand which is known for its caravans and trailers. He fell in love with the region and entrusted the development of the wines to David Duband, who had already harvested grapes for the cooperative of Beaune. The domaine is spread over 17 hectares, including Nuits-Saint-Georges, Vosne-Romanée, Clos-de-la-Roche and Charmes-Chambertin. All the ingredients are combined to perfect the classicism of Burgundy: the domaine is certified as organic and, in 2008, the choice was made to vinify non-destemmed grapes. Since 1991, the winemaker has evolved much in the style of his wines which have gained in precision and elegance. They are now one of the greatest wines of Côte d'Or and are on the menus of most French three star Michelin Guide restaurants.
