Domaine du Château Gris Vineyard:
The Château-Gris, built in the 18th century, is located in the middle of a 3.5 ha enclosure. After Phylloxera destroyed the vines, the roof was covered with grey slate while tiles predominated in Burgundy; the name Château-Gris was then given by the local Nuitonne population and has remained in use. In Nuits-Saint-Georges, only 7.3 ha are cultivated in white, including 4.3 ha in 1er cru. Our 0.67 ha vineyard is located on the high terraces of the hill, above the Château Region: Burgundy Appellation: Nuits Saint-Georges AOP Color: White Capacity: 750ml Grape variety: Chardonnay Packaging: Carton Alcohol: 13 Taste Soft and full Advice:
Ideal with finned fish, large shellfish, poultry in sauce and strong cheeses Tasting:
It develops on the nose aromas with a dominant floral and mineral character, as well as a hint of toast. On the palate, this wine is very frank and round and presents a very clear mineral support, some nuances of liquorice, and an elegant and discreet woodiness. Good general perseverance.
