      Detailed Description

      2020 was an exceptional vintage for the Domaine, producing full-bodied but elegant red wines, with velvety tannins.

        Producer Information

        A prestigious domaine now under the direction of Clément Chicotot and his mother Pascale, the family has an enviable clutch of old vine wines focused upon Nuits-Saint-Georges. Clément's parents, Georges and Pascale, were previously sharecroppers for the Liger-Belair family (Thibault’s branch) which partly explains their prime holdings, but it’s more especially that the Chicotots first started out as vignerons in the village back in 1762. While Georges took most of the limelight due to his larger-than-life character, Pascale was instrumental in the domaine’s rise to prominence over the past 30 years. Working instinctively, with no prior knowledge or training, she vinified her first parcel under the supervision of her father-in-law in 1993, and gradually took over winemaking responsibility (from Georges) for the whole domaine. It was clear to her that their old vines yielded fruit of natural, innate density that required a sensitive hand in the cellar. Favouring whole bunches infusion with little to no pigeage, the wines became refined and elegant while staying true to their Nuit-Saint-Georges roots. Shy and introspective, Clément is quick to brush aside technical questions, preferring to focus the discussion on the thought process and variables at play when making decisions about rognage, ploughing, extraction etc. "In the wine industry, we’re quick to jump on the latest trend but here every decision is meticulously pondered", he comments. Clément takes after his mother in the sensitivity department. Fascinated with nature from an early age, it was the possibility of working with the living world that proved to be the biggest draw. He aims to work in perfect harmony with the vines and their direct environment, placing as much value on the lives of insects, plants and animals as of humans – he rescues every single worm attempting to cross the road that borders Aux St-Juliens each time he ploughs! Since he came back in 2011, Clément has put the domaine through an ambitious viticultural programme that puts it on an equal footing with some of the region’s leading lights. Applying biodynamics and permaculture, ploughing is done once every three years to respect soil structure and its ecosystem. Higher stakes (180cm) were introduced to raise the trellis system and facilitate Clément’s approach to rognage (almost no trimming and done by hand), while elevating the fruiting zone and therefore allowing the grass to grow tall regardless of the weather – in wet conditions tall grass increases humidity in the fruiting zone and therefore the risk of potential fungal attack on grapes. Agroforestry is incorporated through the planting of trees and hedges (in and around the vineyards) to boost biodiversity and mycorrhizal network; it also provides habitats to friendly predators (bats, birds and insects) and positively affects the mesoclimate of the vines.
