DOMAINE DECELLE & FILSNuits-Saint-Georges Villages 2022
Grown on three parcels that sit directly below Premier Cru terrain, where old vines root into iron-rich clay, this Nuits-Saint-Georges carries the appellation's characteristic firmness — yet reveals its charm earlier than most.

About the Wine
Domaine Decelle & Fils farms vineyards across the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune, including three parcels of Nuits-Saint-Georges Villages that lie directly below Premier Cru terrain.
The 2022 vintage was fully destemmed and fermented with indigenous yeast, then aged eighteen months in French oak, about thirty percent new, following a restrained, classic Burgundian approach.

Before it reaches the glass
Temperature
17–19°C
Timing
Estimated drinking window: 2026–2038, with an anticipated peak around 2028–2034; in its youth, the tannins soften with 60–90 minutes of air contact.
Glassware
A large-bowled Burgundy glass, such as a Grand Cru style, suits its structure.
At the table
The wine's firm tannic structure and savory depth pair naturally across Japanese, Thai and Western tables.
Dishes with umami depth, moderate richness and restrained spice tend to sit most comfortably alongside its structure.
Japanese
- Roast duck breast (kamo rosu)
- Wagyu steak
- Marinated tuna (akami zuke)
Why it worksUmami from dashi and soy, combined with moderate fat, meets the wine's tannins without being overwhelmed by them.
Thai
- Massaman beef curry (mild)
- Northern Thai sai oua sausage (light)
- Khao soi chicken (mild)
Why it worksDishes with restrained chili and citrus intensity sit alongside the wine's firm structure rather than competing with it.
Western
- Rack of lamb
- Guinea fowl with porcini mushrooms
- Aged Comté cheese
Why it worksRed meat protein and earthy mushroom umami echo the wine's tannic backbone in a classic Burgundian match.
