The estate and the wine |

David Duband, a celebrated winemaker from Côte de Nuits, has mastered the art of creating wines that reflect the true character of their terroirs. His approach centers on respecting the essence of the fruit, bringing out the unique identity of each vineyard.
Now at the peak of his career, with 2 stars in the RVF guide, Duband continues to produce elegant and polished wines. He skillfully ages his wines, often using whole cluster fermentation depending on the cuvée, resulting in beautifully mature vintages. |

The Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Aux Thorey Rouge 2017, derived from 60-year-old vines and vinified with 80% whole clusters, is a profound wine. Its smoky and spicy bouquet leads to an elegant structure with a plush breadth, presenting itself readily yet maintaining a refined posture. Its fine tannins skillfully integrate with the oak, offering a composition that's already quite enjoyable. Rated 93/100 by RVF. |
