Introduction
The 2022 Domaine Nudant Ladoix captures the elegant, complex nature of Burgundy’s esteemed Côte de Beaune appellation. With a focus on expressing the purity of the Pinot Noir varietal, this wine demonstrates the Nudant family’s deep-rooted expertise and respect for their terroir, passed down through several generations.

Terrior
The vineyards in Ladoix, positioned at the foot of the Corton hill in the Côte de Beaune, benefit from a prime mix of clay and limestone soils, providing ideal drainage and minerality for Pinot Noir. The region’s semi-continental climate, coupled with a balanced growing season in 2022, allowed for optimal ripeness and freshness in the grapes, resulting in a harmonious expression of fruit and earth.

Appearance
The wine presents a brilliant, medium ruby hue with light garnet edges, indicative of the young vintage and classic Pinot Noir profile.

Nose
Aromas unfold delicately with fresh red cherry, raspberry, and cranberry mingling with notes of rose petal, subtle earthiness, and a hint of clove spice. A mineral edge adds complexity to the nose, grounding the bright fruit profile.

Palate
On the palate, the 2022 Domaine Nudant Ladoix is medium-bodied with vibrant acidity and fine, integrated tannins. Juicy flavors of red cherry and wild strawberry dominate, balanced by hints of crushed stone, delicate herbal notes, and a subtle touch of oak. The texture is silky yet fresh, showcasing both youthful energy and structural finesse.

Finish
The finish is refined, lingering with red fruit and mineral notes that gracefully taper, leaving a sense of purity and balance.

Overall Impression
This 2022 Domaine Nudant Ladoix embodies the elegance and understated complexity of a well-made Burgundy Pinot Noir. The wine offers a beautifully balanced profile that highlights both the fruit-forward character of the vintage and the region’s mineral-driven terroir. It is an excellent representation of Burgundy’s nuanced style and has the potential to evolve gracefully over the next few years.
