About Domaine Petitot 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges, Les Poisets
Although Petitots have been farming in Burgundy for five generations, before the Domaine was founded they primarily grew grains. Hervé began working at the estate with his father in 1990 and took over in 1994 along with his wife Natalie who is a trained oenologist. They work together seamlessly to produce beautiful, vibrant Burgundies. In the vineyards the Petitots plow as frequently as possible to eliminate the need for herbicides, and use no insecticides. Hervé and Natalie believe that a wine is "photography of the year" in which it was grown so all their work is focused on allowing the terroir and the quality of the vintage to shine through.
This wine is from The Petitot’s tiny parcel in the lieu-dit "Les Poisets" vineyard in Nuits-St-Georges. it has clay and rocky chalk soil and the vines are an impressive 50 years of age. Fermentation is with indigenous yeast and the wine aged one year in oak barrel, 15% new.
It shows dark cherry, strawberry with herbal and smokey hints. Supple on the palate, it shows vibrant acidity and lively fruit and a lingering finish that makes it memorable. An excellent value!
