The wine

True to the berry-by-berry approach, with pure fruit and a fine-grained texture.

Berry-by-berry fermentation means the bunches are broken down to individual whole berries rather than crushed, so each ferments intact from the inside before splitting. It gives lift and freshness without the stem tannin of whole-cluster work. Half the fruit was handled this way and half destemmed, since whole-cluster was judged unsuitable in 2024. The Hautes-Côtes de Nuits sits high behind the famous slope, cooler and later ripening.

The producer

Pierre-Olivier Garcia

View all Pierre-Olivier Garcia wines

Pierre-Olivier Garcia is one of the brightest young talents in Burgundy, a rising grower and micro-negociant based in the Côte de Nuits. In a short time his wines have won critical acclaim for their purity, energy and impressive value.

Working from carefully chosen parcels across the Côte d Or and beyond, Garcia farms and selects with obsessive attention to detail, favouring whole-bunch ferments and restrained oak. The aim is transparency, letting each terroir shine.

The range is unusually broad and rewarding, from serious single-lieu-dit Aligoté and charming Cru Beaujolais to village Marsannay and Nuits-Saint-Georges and on to Grand Cru Corton, each finely drawn and expressive.

Precise, fragrant and quietly ambitious, Pierre-Olivier Garcia is a name to watch, and to drink, as modern Burgundy finds its future.
