Burgundy Hills Winery
A New World-style winery at the heart of Hautes-Côtes de Nuits: a tremendous gamble taken by two childhood friends to create a place that is as much about passion as it is about high standards.
With charming landscapes with wood-covered hillsides, well-exposed vineyards, and bucolic pastures, the Hautes-Côtes are located in the hills overlooking the Côte de Nuits, south of Dijon. At an altitude of between 300 and 400 metres, the landscape is hilly, with a harsh climate (hot, dry summers, cold winters), which explains the courage and solidarity of its inhabitants.
Vines have been cultivated here for centuries. In the Middle Ages, Benedictine monks from the Abbey of Saint-Vivant grew the finest of wines here, undoubtedly taking advantage of the cool climate which favoured the delicate blossoming of this divine nectar.

From this Winery
An easy-drinking wine, fresh and elegant, bursting with fruit.
- Visual: deep ruby in colour with violet highlights.
- Nose: notes of red fruits (strawberry, raspberry, cherry) that open up to toasted, vanilla notes with a slight touch of spice.
- Palate: the freshness of the Pinot Noir is expressed with finesse. Substance, roundness and full flavour characterize this generous wine with well-integrated tannins.
- The finish is long and full, with a discreet hint of oak.
