2021 Didier Fornerol, Cote de Nuits-Villages, Rouge

The Cote de Nuits Villages Rouge comes from 0.80 hectares on three different parcels west of the village of Corgoloin. One is located near the town cemetery, while the other two are at higher elevations along the Route de Villiers. The vines are, on average, forty years old. The grapes are gently whole-cluster pressed, with manual punch-downs and some pumping over. The wine is aged for fourteen to sixteen months entirely in a barrel, only around 10% of which is new.
