These parcels sit on the southern edge of the Côte de Nuits, where the hard Comblanchien limestone and clay-heavy soils provide a more substantial structural foundation than typical village-level offerings.\n\nThe 2019 vintage, characterized by a warm and dry growing season, resulted in small berries with high phenolic concentration and a pronounced mid-palate density.  Fornerol’s use of approximately 50% whole clusters in this Rouge provides the necessary technical counterpoint to the year’s solar intensity, contributing a frame of fine-grained tannins and a vertical, aromatic lift.\n\nThe final wine is defined by its architectural balance, pairing the vintage’s natural ripeness with the persistent acidity and mineral tension inherent to Fornerol’s rigorous viticultural standards.","brand":"T.

The *Le Preau* lieu-dit in Brochon is defined by distinctive silt and reddish-brown limestone soils, a geologically specific terroir that Fourrier seeks to express through the avoidance of racking and minimal use of new oak.\n\nThe 2022 vintage provided a favorable growing season characterized by sufficient rainfall to mitigate drought, resulting in wines with a clear structural tension and a notable retention of acidity despite the warmth of the year.  This Pinot Noir demonstrates a fine-grained tannin structure and an elegant, measured mid-palate density that benefits from the vintage’s natural freshness.\n\nThe wine serves as a precise reflection of Fourrier’s cellar philosophy, where minimal handling allows the intrinsic character of these established vines to remain the focus.","brand":"Ole Imports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46487619961080,"sku":"17958","price":99.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/8001\/0232\/files\/IMG_1242.jpg?v=1757108304"},{"product_id":"2023-c-thiriet-cote-de-nuits-villages-la-robignotte","title":"2023 C.

The site’s singular terroir, defined by a vein of blue marl within deeper clay-limestone soils, dictates a structural profile that possesses both density and significant aging potential.\n\nIn the cellar, the duo utilizes 40% whole-cluster fermentation and a moderate aging regimen in wood, comprising 20% new oak, to frame the wine's character without masking its geographic specificity.

The \"Aux Fauques\" lieu-dit in Comblanchien is characterized by thin, Bathonian limestone-rich soils and an east-facing exposure, which together instill a structural rigidity and mineral-driven tension in the Pinot Noir. In 2023, the domaine prioritized precise harvest timing to counterbalance the year's solar intensity, resulting in a wine of notable physiological ripeness that maintains a vibrant, high-toned acid profile. The palate is built upon a framework of fine-grained tannins and a dense mid-palate, avoiding the rusticity often associated with the appellation in favor of a polished, architectural finish. This bottling successfully bridges the gap between the site’s natural austerity and the 2023 season’s depth, offering a clear-eyed expression of northern Côte de Nuits terroir.","brand":"Michael Skurnik Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48004578902264,"sku":"19911","price":67.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/8001\/0232\/files\/IMG_3320.jpg?v=1772581853"},{"product_id":"2023-domaine-gerard-julien-fils-cote-de-nuits-villages-armand","title":"2023 Domaine Gerard Julien \u0026 Fils, Cote de Nuits-Villages, Armand","description":"\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eA committed group of vignerons is finally giving this AOC the attention it deserves, and at the forefront is Domaine Gérard Julien \u0026amp; Fils.
