Region
Côte d’Or stretches from Dijon in the north to Santenay in the south, via Beaune. The wines produced here are more complex, more expensive and more lasting than elsewhere in Burgundy. They come from famous villages such as Vosne Romanee, Pommard, Volnay, Meursault and Puligny Montrachet. The region is divided into two parts, Côte de Nuits to the north and Cote de Beaune to the south. The first produces almost exclusively red wines, the second both red and whites. Cote d’Or takes its name from the Orient; the vines face east to make the most of limited sunlight.
 
Producer
Since 1957, the Nuiton-Beaunoy wine growers have been a part of the Vignerons des Terres Secrètes co-operative. The co-op`s approach is focussed on sustainability; more equity in an economic, social and ecological environment that puts people at the heart of the system. Their overall aim is to produce remarkable wines, in an approach respectful of their environment.
 
Tasting Notes
A balanced, soft red Burgundy with a pleasant red fruit bouquet which leads into a palate of ripe cranberry and redcurrant fruit and a subtle smokiness on the finish.
