Hoffmann-Jayer Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru "Les Damodes" 2019 750ml

A real jewel of the cellar, this comes from a 1910 planting of just 13 rows, totaling a tenth of a hectare in this outstanding vineyard that abuts Vosne-Romanée to the immediate north. Les Damodes’ shallow, pebbly soils produce a wine of nuance and finesse, marked by a profoundly savory minerality and graceful red fruits, as well as a super-long, tunneling finish. Alexandre uses one-third whole bunches during the vinification, and élevage takes place in 30% new wood.
