The 2021 Jean Tardy Nuits-Saint-Georges Bas De Combe is a beautifully structured Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy's most renowned villages in the Côte de Nuits. Produced by Domaine Jean Tardy, this wine reflects the classic character of Nuits-Saint-Georges, combining depth, freshness and firm structure. Aromas of black cherry, red plum and wild berries are complemented by notes of spice, violets and subtle earthy complexity.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, with vibrant acidity and finely woven tannins supporting flavours of dark berries, sour cherry and savoury spice. The texture is concentrated yet balanced, offering both power and elegance before leading to a long, dry finish with impressive persistence and mineral nuance.
Ben's Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Nuits-Saint-Georges for those seeking a classic Côte de Nuits Pinot Noir with both immediate appeal and ageing potential. Enjoy now with decanting or cellar over the next 8–12 years as further complexity develops. Pairs beautifully with roast duck, lamb, mushroom dishes, game birds and aged hard cheeses.
