Information
Domaine de Perdrix owes its name to the Nuits-Saint-Georges Aux Perdrix Premier Cru, which is run soley by this domain. This is one of the first vineyards that the Devillard family owned along with the Château de Chamirey and Domaine de la Garenne and Domaine de la Ferté in Burgundy.
As well as superb plots in Côtes de Nuits and Nuits premier crus, the domain produces Vosne and Echézeaux wines. Since the Devillard family took over the domain in 1996, the wines have continued to gain in definition. The family made wise choices such as installing a cooler cellar to allow longer ageing periods with fewer toasted barriques.
The yields are low, the maturity is optimal and the sustainable farming is remarkable. The domain's red wines are powerful whilst still very refined, and they have remarkable ageing potential.
Aligoté, one of the leading grape varieties in Burgundy, descends from Pinot Noir, just like Chardonnay. Its compact, medium-sized bunches are a charming orange-yellow colour. Perfectly suited to clay and limestone soils, Aligoté reveals its full potential here. Sustainable viticulture methods allow the terroirs to provide the grapes with all the resources and nutrients they need to develop properly. To preserve the fruit, the Aligoté grapes are harvested and sorted entirely by hand. In the cellar, juices are settled and pressed for 24 to 48 hours. The mature wine is then aged in vats for several months.
The elegant gold colour with bright reflections reveals white and yellow fruit aromas with subtle citrus notes. The palate is marked by a fine balance between finesse and fruity acidity, leading to a long finish.
