Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits "Les Dames Huguettes"

With their calcareous clay soil (Jurassic rocks), our Hautes-Côtes de Nuits vineyards are located on a plateau behind the famous Côte de Nuits at an altitude of between 300 and 400 metres. Exposure varies from south to east, allowing the vines to benefit from maximum sunlight. Les Dames Huguettes is a wine produced from grapes selected from the best terroirs of the Hautes-Côtes area that have particularly good exposure. As a result, this wine has a mineral profile but is also bursting with freshness and generosity.
