Taste
A deep ruby colour.
It features a concentrated fruity aroma of raspberries and cherries with floral aromas reminiscent of roses and violets. It also has notes of black tea and orange peel. It also has a hint of fine cacao with a hint of oak, giving it a youthful, gorgeous and very elegant aroma.
When you put it in your mouth, you will feel an abundance of fruitiness and minerality, with a beautiful acidity at the center. The astringency is very fine and the texture is extremely elegant.
It has a youthful taste that is characteristic of a good year, and although it will be interesting to see it mature, it is also very delicious at this stage. This is a beautifully tasting red wine with a dignity that is hard to believe for a wine of the "Hautes-Côtes de Nuits" class.
It's delicious to drink on its own, but also pairs well with white meat, salads, terrines, etc.

About the Pelletier family
Chateau de Premeaux (Pelletier family)
Organic history: Since 1999
Located in the village of Nuits-Saint-Georges, south of the Côte de Nuits in Burgundy. The wine farm purchased the chateau in 1920 and has been passed down from father to son. Currently, Arnaud, the fifth generation, is in charge of grape cultivation and brewing. Some of the fields have been organic for a long time, but all of them were converted in 2012. We are proud to be able to teach our children that our land is cultivated in a way that does not pollute the earth, and that we should drink and eat things that are good for our bodies. Most of the Pelletier family's wines are for individual customers in France and are difficult to obtain even in France. By brewing each plot separately, we are able to bring out the terroir (soil) that we cherish.
