2023 is the inagural and much anticipated release from this new domaine with some history and great parcels with vine age. Jean's father Tom came from England in the 60's and began to cobble together a 2ha domaine. In the early 2000's Tom got sick and the vineyards were rented to Meo-Camuzet for nearly 20 years - so they have been in good hands - he passed away in 2015. After deccieding to return to Burgundy to take teh viens back, Jean spent time with Charles Lachaux leading up to the debut of the domaine wines. Vineyards utilize high trellising, cover crops, low-to no till. The wines 100% whole cluster with the fermentation starting out with a Pied de cuve, and NO OAK. All the elevage is done in ceramic globes and eggs for 24 months. 

Winehog:

"The Les Perrieres has a deeper and darker minerality … a true NSG. But the elevage in Ceramics gives this Nuits-Saint-Georges a lighter and more lively expression. The expression of the pinot fruit is discreet and still underlining the Nuits-Saint-Georges seriousness. A modern NSG? The plot is located high on the slope just below the old quarry. The further elevage and ageing have mainly increased the intensity of the fruit … giving a denser wine."

Wine Advocate:

"From a parcel of old vines planted north-south below the quarry that lends this climat its name, Marshall's 2023 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Perrières offers up pretty aromas of plums and raspberries mingled with licorice and rose petal. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and concentrated, with supple, powdery tannins and a floral finish, it was one of the more sensual wines in the range at this point in their élevage."
