Domain Julien

Domain Julien

Началото на домейна датира от края на 19-ти век, когато Франсоа Ксавие Жулиен за първи път купува малко лозе Нюи-Сен-Жорж. След Втората световна война синът на Франсоа Арман се заема с разширяването на притежанията си чрез закупуване на повече лозя. Неговият син Жерар продължи разширяването през 70-те и 80-те години, като доведе имението до около 10 хектара, където е и днес с придобиването на парцели от Nuits Villages, Nuits-Saint-Georges и Echézeaux Grand Cru. Наскоро синът на Жерар Етиен Жулиен пое контрола върху имението. Четвъртото поколение начело, Étienne въвежда нова ера на качество. Етиен се зае да надгражда нещата от момента, в който пое поводите, започвайки с лозята. Възприет е по-органичен подход и сега се следва строга методология „lutte raisonnée“ за контрол на болестите и вредителите. Добивът се контролира внимателно и има сортиране както в лозето, така и във винарната преди гроздето да бъде смляно. След няколко дни мацерация с минимална намеса, вината се винифицират и отлежават в 228L бъчви до пролетта на следващата година, преди да се бутилират. За Côtes-de-Nuits-Villageges и Nuits-St-Georges вината обикновено отлежават в 30% нови бъчви, докато Nuits-St-Georges 1er Cru и Echezeaux ще видят 50% нови бъчви.

Burgundy

In this region, red wines are produced from a single variety - Pinot Noir, but the wines actually differ in quality from light and ordinary to rich, complex, and truly majestic. Burgundy is famous for its highly 'crushed' vineyards, and the general belief is that the smaller the vineyard area, the better the wine. The best Burgundy wines come from Côte d'Or, a strip of just 30 miles, divided in the center into 2 separate parts; Côte de Nuits to the north and Côte de Beaune to the south. The fame of Côte de Nuits lies in the red wines - here, 95% of red wines are produced from the Pinot Noir grape. Naturally, some of the best, age-worthy, most exotic, and expensive wines are also found here. Côte de Beaune produces approximately 38% white wine, 60% red, and 2% sparkling. The variety for white wine is exclusively Chardonnay, and the quality ranges from the best, Montrachets and Corton Charlemagnes, Meursault, Puligny, and Chassagne to the more ordinary Macon Blanc. The former traditionally age in small oak barrels, while the wines from Macon are usually lighter in character and correspondingly offer a good quality-to-price ratio. The red wines from Beaune do not possess the fame of their 'brothers' from Côte de Nuits, with exceptions being those from Pommard, Corton, and Volnay. Generally, they are lighter in style, but depending on the vintage, they can show potential that successfully rivals Côte de Nuits and beyond.

Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir is the dominant red wine grape of Burgundy, a challenge for every single vine grower and wine producer. It can be found in Germany (as Spätburgunder), Italy (Pino Nero), Chile, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and the USA. The wines show a specific aroma of red berries and cherry depending on the vinification method employed - from fresh red cherries in lighter wines to stewed black cherries in weightier examples, many of them also showing hints of earthy flavours.
