Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits Rouge "Les Champs De Perdrix" 2021 | Wine from Domaine Les Cocottes

Located on the picturesque heights of Nuits-Saint-Georges, in the village of Arcenant, the Domaine Les Cocottes tells a story of boldness and passion. Without a winemaking heritage, Hélène Coudin built her estate from scratch, one plot at a time, armed with determination and love for the vine. Balancing a part-time job and meticulous care for her vines, she has managed to create unique wines, imbued with the richness and diversity of the Burgundy terroir.

The Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits Rouge "Les Champs de Perdrix" 2021 is a vibrant expression of the Côte-d'Or terroir. With its fruity character and elegant structure, this wine reflects the meticulous attention Hélène gives to each step of the winemaking process. Sourced from carefully selected plots, this red wine delights with its bright red fruit aromas, enhanced by spicy notes and a slight floral touch.

At first glance, its intense ruby color captures attention. The nose opens with aromas of cherry and wild strawberry, complemented by subtle hints of white pepper and violet. On the palate, the attack is lively and fresh, giving way to a supple and balanced structure, where silky tannins meet beautiful acidity. The finish is long, marked by nuances of small fruits and sweet spices.

This wine pairs perfectly with traditional dishes like a bœuf bourguignon or a herb-roasted chicken. It will also enhance a plate of aged cheeses or vegetarian dishes like a winter vegetable tart. For a bolder touch, try it with a mild curry made with root vegetables.
