The 2023 Domaine des Perdrix Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Aux Perdrix is a flagship Pinot Noir from one of the most highly regarded Premier Cru vineyards in Nuits-Saint-Georges. Produced by Domaine des Perdrix, which owns a significant portion of the Aux Perdrix vineyard, this wine captures the appellation’s hallmark combination of power, structure and depth while retaining remarkable precision and elegance.
The nose is complex and expressive, revealing aromas of black cherry, wild raspberry and dark plum alongside notes of violet, baking spice and subtle forest floor character. On the palate, it is concentrated yet beautifully balanced, with vibrant acidity, fine-grained tannins and layered red and dark berry fruit. Mineral undertones and savoury nuances add depth and complexity, leading to a long, structured and persistent finish.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding Burgundy for collectors and Pinot Noir enthusiasts seeking a Premier Cru with both immediate appeal and long-term cellaring potential. Its combination of fruit intensity, structure and vineyard pedigree makes it a superb match for roast duck, lamb, beef Wellington or mushroom-based dishes. Enjoy with decanting in its youth or cellar confidently for 12–20 years as additional complexity and refinement develop.
