Overview
The 2023 Domaine Jacques Cacheux Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits Bec à Vent is a small-production red Burgundy from a traditional Vosne-Romanée family domaine. Made from Pinot Noir, it offers a lighter, perfumed Côte de Nuits expression with red fruit, savoury detail and the freshness typical of the higher-altitude Hautes Côtes de Nuits.
Vintage & Winemaking
Domaine Jacques Cacheux works without herbicides, insecticides or anti-rot treatments in the vineyard. In the cellar, grapes are fully destemmed, followed by around one week of cold maceration before fermentation with natural yeasts. The wines are bottled without fining or filtration, preserving texture, freshness and site expression.
