Pierre Vincent Girardin Nuits 1er cru Damodes 2022

Pierre Vincent Girardin Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Damodes 2022
From the high northern slope bordering Vosne, Damodes marries floral lift to Nuits structure. The 2022 is perfumed and filigreed up front, then firm and chalk-led through the finish, its tannins silk-threaded rather than burly. A poised, ageworthy 1er Cru of real class.

The Domaine
Pierre Vincent Girardin is Burgundy’s 13th-generation prodigy who founded his own label in his early twenties. A gifted technician with a steel-nerved, uncompromising philosophy, he chases purity and precision above all else. Whites are shaped by slow, minimalist handling and large-format oak, reds by perfume-first extractions and fine-grained tannin management. Micro-parcels and meticulous selections keep volumes tiny and demand intense.
