Nicolas Faure Nuits Saint Georges 2022 [NET]

$37999

Nicolas Faure trained at Romanée-Conti, Chave and Prieuré-Roch before settling into his own micro-domaine in Meuilley — and his Burgundies have quickly become some of the most sought-after wines of the new generation. His village Nuits comes from two parcels in the Coteau des Bois lieu-dit, planted to massale-selected Pinot trained on échalas in 2017. Vinified whole-cluster with ambient yeasts and aged in used barrels, it's a pretty, silky take on Nuits — closer in character to the Vosne side of the village. Tiny production. NET.

"The 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges blends two vineyards planted massale selection as échalas in 2017 in the lieu-dit Côteau des Bois. With light blackberry and briar on the nose, it develops light red fruit with time. The palate is candied on the entry with blood orange and raspberry pastilles, lightly spiced with one of the fleshiest finishes from Faure this vintage. Just a couple of barrels produced." —Neal Martin

More about Nicolas Faure

If you are one of the lucky few who can secure a visit with Nicolas Faure in his cellar outside Nuits-St-Georges, watch your head! Yes, it is a very small cellar, really just a garage. But inside that garage is some of the most exciting wine happening in Burgundy.

Nicolas is a farmer. That sounds cliché, but here it is absolutely the truth. His day job is as vineyard manager for his equally talented wife, Amelie Berthaut of Domaine Berthaut-Gerbet. Previously he worked vineyards at Prieur-Roche and Domaine de la Romanée Contí.

His own domaine is a small collection of parcels that totals just 1 hectare, allowing him to farm them all by himself the way he wants to.

He is not certified organic or biodynamic because he does not want to have to spray copper a specific number of times (among other regulations). But everything he does in the vineyard and the cellar is to make sure the terroir comes through.

Nicolas is very thoughtful, very curious and ultimately very deliberate. Again, he does everything himself so that he has total control of the process. These wines are his expressions of the vineyard, nothing and no one else is involved.
