Nuits-Saint-Georges
1er cru "Aux Cras"
A small plot of 25 ares, taken over in 1994, from a vineyard of over 75 years. The location is on the hillside facing east. The climate is in the upper part (250 meters in altitude) of the 1er cru area at the border of Vosne-Romanée. The soil is composed of small gravels (laminated screes) that warm quickly at the slightest ray of sunshine. The wine possesses the characteristic structure of Nuits-Saint-Georges, but the tannins remain elegant, indicating the proximity to Vosne-Romanée. Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Aux Cras is flavorful and dynamic, always with a beautiful balance.
