Hautes-Côtes de Nuits "Le Clos du Prieuré"

Presentation

Location
1.1 hectares of vines planted in 1986 on high Côte de Nuits plots in the village of Arcenant, 10km to the west of Nuits-Saint-Georges. This plot faces due south and is steeply sloping (around 40%) at 450 meters above sea level.
Terroir
The soil comprises white and limestone marl, similar to that found in Corton Charlemagne. This is the last plot to be harvested as it requires more time to fully ripen.
Varietal
Pinot Noir : 100%

Advice

Tasting
This plot produces Hautes Côtes de Nuits wines that are yielding and with depth, and always with wonderful maturity.
