Product description
Originating from France in the Burgundy region, specifically within the premier tier of the Nuits-Saint-Georges appellation in the Cote de Nuits, the Domaine François Feuillet Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru 'Aux Thorey' Library Pack (2018, 2019, 2020) represents a rare, six bottle collection containing two bottles of each featured vintage. Owned by François Feuillet and vinified under the expert stewardship of David Duband, Domaine François Feuillet shares identical organic viticultural practices, parcel management, and minimalist winemaking philosophies as Domaine David Duband. Sourced from Aux Thorey, a prestigious Premier Cru site situated on steep, limestone-rich soils near Vosne-Romanée, this parcel yields Pinot Noir renowned for its floral elegance, fine tannin structure, and refined mineral tension. The winemaking combines hand harvesting, significant whole-cluster fermentation (approximately 40% to 50%), native yeast fermentation, and barrel aging in French oak (approximately 30% new) to craft wines of remarkable aging potential, providing an extraordinary vertical study across three consecutive, high-calibre Burgundian vintages.
