Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Murgers - cuvée Guyard de Changey
Domaine des Hospices de Nuits-Saint-Georges
Albert Bichot’s view
Named after the heaps of stones found in the vineyards, this plot features gravelly soils, on the pink limestone of Premeaux. Intense on the nose, with some tension on the palate, underpinned by lovely fruit and freshness. It will likely need some time to reach its peak.
Food pairings
Capon stuffed with porcini mushrooms, filet mignon with herbs, cheeses with character.

Vinification and aging
This Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Murgers – cuvée Guyard de Changey has been skilfully vinified by the Domaine des Hospices de Nuits-Saint-Georges. Sold every year at the Hospices auction on the 2d Sunday in March following harvest, Albert Bichot regularly buys this great wine on behalf of clients who then entrust us with its ageing in our cellars. During this important time, thanks to meticulous work and the custom blend of a variety of barrels, we further develop its complexity and potential.
