The Rion family flagship in 1er Cru form. Patrice Rion claimed his share of Nuits-Saint-Georges Clos des Argillières when he split from the family domaine, and it has anchored the estate's top end ever since — these days under son Maxime, who has been fully in charge since 2015. The 1.8-hectare parcel at the southern end of NSG, on the pink Premeaux limestone, gives a structured, dark-fruited expression of Nuits. Hand-harvested, fermented in open stainless steel, raised about eighteen months in French oak. 2023 brought ripe but lifted Côte de Nuits reds — Argillières usually rewards patience, and this is one to lay down.

"A decidedly more reserved and cooler nose grudgingly reveals its aromas of poached plum, newly turned earth, exotic tea and floral whiffs of violet and lilac. The lilting and beautifully textured middle weight flavors possess a really lovely mid-palate mouthfeel before culminating in a youthfully austere, stony, precise and impressively long finale. I very much like the balance and this excellent effort should age effortlessly." —Allen Meadows

"The 2023 Nuits Saint-Georges Clos des Argillières 1er Cru, which includes 30% whole bunch, has an intriguing bouquet: mainly dark berry fruit intermingled with mulch, white pepper and sea spray scents. There is fine delineation once again. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy black fruit and touches of sea salt, giving way to a quite marine-influenced finale with gentle grip. One of the more cerebral wines from Nuits Saint-Georges, the 2023 is cohesive—perhaps missing the audacity of the previous vintage yet certainly very well-crafted." —Neal Martin

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

A Sunday roast wine — bone-in rib of beef, venison loin with juniper, slow-braised short ribs, or a wedge of aged Comté. Worth a carafe in its youth, or save it for a decade in the cellar.

Tasting Profile

Dark and brooding for Chambolle's neighbor — blackberry, black cherry, juniper, hawthorn, a hint of truffle. Firm tannins, savory finish, plenty of grip. Classic structured Nuits from one of its best 1er Crus.
