The Producer

Christophe Perrot-Minot changed his winemaking in 2006. He adopted almost no extraction, seeking wines that are more digestible and balanced, with less concentration. Extraction draws colour and tannin from grape skins during fermentation; using less can leave a red wine lighter in feel and easier to drink.

The domaine farms Côte de Nuits vineyards and bottles red wines across village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru levels. The holdings include Morey-Saint-Denis, Gevrey-Chambertin, Chambolle-Musigny, Vosne-Romanée and Nuits-Saint-Georges.

Place

Morey-Saint-Denis, Gevrey-Chambertin, Chambolle-Musigny, Vosne-Romanée and Nuits-Saint-Georges are Côte de Nuits villages represented across the domaine's holdings. Their names appear on bottles at several levels of Burgundy's vineyard hierarchy.

Gevrey-Chambertin makes the parcel work concrete. Its village wine combines La Justice and Les Seuvrées, two clay-limestone plots. The soil gives the cuvée a dual character, joining power with delicacy.

Wines

The range is organized by appellation level and named parcel. Morey-Saint-Denis Premier Cru La Riotte and Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru La Richemone Ultra are Premier Cru reds. Chambertin, Chapelle-Chambertin and Chambertin Clos de Bèze are Grand Cru reds.

Chambolle-Musigny appears as Orveaux des Bussières and as Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru La Combe d'Orveau Ultra. Gevrey-Chambertin Justice des Seuvrées is the village wine in this group. Grand Cru is the highest vineyard level in Burgundy, while a village wine carries the commune name.

Final Word

Domaine Perrot-Minot works the Côte de Nuits through red wines at village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru levels, with named bottles from Gevrey-Chambertin to Chambertin Clos de Bèze.
