The 2001 vintage in Burgundy was a challenging but ultimately rewarding year, with wines often described as attractive and enjoyable, though perhaps lacking a singular defining character. Domaine Gille is a family-run estate with roots as winegrowers dating back to 1570, embracing biodynamic principles. Les Brûlées is a premier lieu-dit in Nuits-Saint-Georges, and this 100% Pinot Noir from Domaine Gille is considered a benchmark expression of the appellation. It combines the precision and elegance of great Côte de Nuits Burgundy with the depth and structure that makes Nuits-Saint-Georges one of the most age-worthy villages in the region. Tasting notes for Domaine Gille Nuits-Saint-Georges 'Les Brûlées' typically describe a bright ruby red colour with garnet hues. The nose offers lovely ripe cherry and berry fruit with a subtle earthy complexity, characteristic of Nuits-Saint-Georges. On the palate, it is well-structured and medium-full bodied with excellent balance, ripe and expressive fruit, supported by fine tannins and pleasing freshness, leading to a medium-long finish with lingering red fruit and a touch of spice. Other notes mention aromas of red fruits with blackcurrant, a fine balance between tannin and freshness, and a long finish with touches of vanilla. 【Four centuries of winemaking heritage】.
