Description
Being a former cooper, Nicolas uses his own barrels with care to promote texture and smarten the wines’ profile without any noticeable oak flavours. These are post-modern expressions of Burgundy. Sensitively extracted, fruit-focussed and immediate, but complex and ageworthy. Unfined, unfiltered and with minimal sulphur.
Nicolas Morin is an outsider in Burgundy, having left a career as a barrel maker in Champagne to set up his micro-négociant business out of immaculate premises in Nuits-Saint-Georges. Nicolas still makes his own barrels and unsurprisingly his wines are a true reflection of this solid work-ethic and resolute independence. Nicolas now buys grapes from organic farmers up and down the Côte d’Or to make a range of drinkable, terroir-focussed wines that are part of the new wave redefining Burgundy.
