Tasting

Notes

Simon called the grapes “like caviar.” Adele was grinning. And honestly? We were too. This Aux Herbues is perfume in motion—rose, violet, lavender and spice, all carried on silky tannins and fresh red fruit. It’s Nuits-Saint-Georges, but not as you know it: lifted, elegant, and just a little bit heady. A wine to fall for, hard.

Ben
A wine that smelled so good, I wanted to drink it through my nose. (Not literally!) Violet and rose leapt from the glass, with bright red fruit close behind. And beneath all that perfume? Serious structure. This one’s got a long future ahead of it.

Wine Details

Wine Details

Perfumed Power. Northern Nuits. 2,000 Bottles Made.

Aux Herbues is one of those wines that just feels alive. Grown on marl-limestone soils in the village of Nuits-Saint-Georges, it brings together the deep structure the appellation is known for with an unexpectedly floral, expressive edge. The plot borders Vosne-Romanée, and while the finesse is there, this is pure, characterful Nuits, lifted, elegant, and deeply satisfying.

Simon called the grapes “like caviar.” Adele was smiling ear to ear. The perfume alone had everyone in the cellar swooning.

The Plot

North-facing parcel on marl-limestone soils. 45-year-old vines. East exposure catches the morning sun and preserves freshness and tension.

Technical

100% Pinot Noir. 30% whole bunch. 5-day cold maceration at 8°C. Medium extraction: 4 punch-downs, mostly pumpovers. Aged 12 months in oak (30% new). No filtration. 2,000 bottles + 30 magnums produced.
