2021 David Duband Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru “Aux Thorey”, Burgundy, France
ABOUT THIS WINE
“Aux Thorey” is a premier cru vineyard on the northern side of Nuits-Saint-Georges, near Vosne-Romanée, where the soils are lighter and more limestone-dominant, producing wines with more elegance and aromatic complexity than the more robust crus to the south. The 2021 vintage was cooler and more classical in style, yielding wines with freshness, lower alcohol, and fine detail.
Grapes are organically farmed and hand-harvested, with fermentation carried out using native yeasts and a high proportion of whole clusters—typical of Duband’s style. The wine is aged for about 14 months in French oak barrels, with a moderate use of new wood to preserve purity and structure.
ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
David Duband is among the most dynamic voices in contemporary Burgundy, known for marrying traditional vineyard work with a modern, elegant style of winemaking. Based in the Hautes-Côtes and farming organically since 2006, Duband is especially noted for his use of whole-cluster fermentation, which brings aromatic lift and structure to his wines. His Nuits-Saint-Georges “Aux Thorey” captures the more refined side of this village, offering a nuanced, terroir-driven Pinot Noir with real aging potential.
