Tasting notes
The 2013 Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru Château Gris has an intense, marmalade and spice-tinged bouquet that needs to calm down by the time of bottling. The bouquet is like a guest speaking too loudly at a dinner. The palate is medium-bodied and a little smudged on the entry. The tannins feel quite firm in the mouth with burnt toast and black pepper on the slightly heavy-handed finish.

About this wine
Albert Bichot's Château Gris represents the excellence of Nuits-Saint-Georges, one of Burgundy's most prestigious appellations. This red wine showcases the classic character of Pinot Noir from this storied region, known for producing wines of remarkable depth and structure. The estate's winemaking philosophy emphasizes the natural expression of terroir, allowing the distinctive mineral and spicy character of Nuits-Saint-Georges to shine through.
This medium-bodied red displays the firm tannins and peppery spice characteristic of the appellation, with elegant toast notes that reflect careful aging. The wine's balanced structure and complexity make it an excellent companion to a wide range of cuisine. Pair it with charcuterie and cured meats, shellfish preparations, pasta dishes, or soft cheeses like Brie. It is equally at home with oily fish such as salmon or mackerel, where its tannin structure complements rich, buttery textures beautifully.
