Aux Thoreys is a relatively cool site close the town of Nuits-St-Georges that is influenced by the cool breezes wafting down from the Hautes Côtes. As such, it often produces elegant, refined Pinots with considerable grace and charm. This 60% whole bunch-fermented red from Brian Sieve is a case in point, with savoury rose petal and wild herb aromas, sculpted tannins and an earthy undertone.

Varietal

Pinot Noir

Regularly described as being the grape varietal responsible for producing the world's most romantic wines, Pinot Noir has long been associated with elegance and a broad range of flavors The name means 'black pine' in French, and this is due to the fact that the fruit of this particular varietal is especially dark in color, and hangs in a conical shape, like that of a pine cone. Despite being grown today in almost every wine producing country, Pinot Noir is a notoriously difficult grape variety to cultivate. This is because it is especially susceptible to various forms of mold and mildew, and thrives best in steady, cooler climates. However, the quality of the fruit has ensured that wineries and vintners have persevered with the varietal, and new technologies and methods have overcome many of the problems it presents. Alongside this, the wide popularity and enthusiasm for this grape has ensured it will remain a firm favorite amongst wine drinkers for many years to come.

Wine Advocate

Aromas of peonies, orange rind, wild berries and sweet soil tones introduce the 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Aux Thorey, a medium to full-bodied, fine-boned and elegant wine that's beautifully balanced and structurally refined. This is very promising.

Vinous Media

The 2018 Nuits Saint-Georges Aux Thorey ler Cru feels a little disjointed at the moment but it will cohere with time. The palate is medium-bodied with finely tuned wild strawberry and red cherry notes, very pure and harmonious, and a silky-smooth finish. It might require a little more structure, but there is satisfying finesse here.

Burghound

This is the first wine to display much reduction and even here it's not enough to completely suppress the floral influences. Even so, there is a lot of gas on the palate of the middle weight flavors that are shaped by relatively elegant tannins on the slightly short finish. I suspect that this will harmonize in time, but readers should view my projected range as provisional.

Winery Notes
