Here’s what was #inmyglass :
FRANCE is located in Western Europe and is part of the wine belt, which includes the major wine-growing regions in the world. The country is blessed with renowned wine regions that are spread across the country and known for specific grape varieties that are grown in the area’s unique soil and climate conditions.
BURGUNDY (Bourgogne), one of the 16 wine regions of France, is located in the eastern part of the country and known for its wonderful terroir which allows Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes varieties to grow in harmony and give their best to create great wines. The region has 84 appellations spread over 6 different subregions such as Chablis and the Grand Auxerrois, the Côte de Nuits and the Hautes Côtes de Nuits, the Côte de Beaune and the Hautes Côtes de Beaune, the Côte Chalonnaise and the Couchois, the Mâconnais and the Châtillonnais.
CÔTE DE NUITS , one of the 6 subregions in Burgundy wine region of France, is located in the northern part of the Côte d’Or and extends from Dijon to just south of Nuits-Saint-Georges. This prestigious vineyard is home to 24 of Burgundy’s 33 grand crus. It produces mostly red wines made from Pinot Noir grapes, although some white wines are also produced. The Côte de Nuits consists of eight designated villages: Chambolle-Musigny, Fixin, Gevrey-Chambertin, Marsannay, Morey-Saint-Denis, Nuits-Saint-Georges, Vosne-Romanée, and Vougeot.
NUITS SAINT GEORGES is a town and village appellation of the Côtes de Nuits, which also includes the commune of Premeaux-Prissey in the AOC. The vineyard is mostly planted with Pinot Noir, and comprises 41 Premiers Crus climats. A small portion of Chardonnay is also produced.
The wine #inmyglass is made by #DomaineChevillonChezeaux using 100% Pinot Noir from 60 year old vines planted in the northern part of the vineyard on soils composed of silt and gravel , resulting in the wonderful wine that I have #inmyglass 🍷
The flavors of Pork TenderloinI In Mushroom Sauce complemented the Nuits Saint Georges 2015 of Domaine Chevillon Chezeau very well.
À votre santé 🍷
