{"title":"Prémeaux-Prissey","description":"\u003cp\u003eJust south of Nuits-Saint-Georges, \u003cstrong\u003ePrémeaux-Prissey\u003c\/strong\u003e closes the central stretch of the Côte de Nuits toward Comblanchien. The commune, formed in 1972 from the union of Prémeaux and Prissey, has no appellation of its own: almost all of it falls within the \u003cstrong\u003eNuits-Saint-Georges\u003c\/strong\u003e appellation, recognized in 1936, whose southern sector extends across the two communes. Only a dozen hectares at the southern tip, such as Les Vignottes, are released as Côte de Nuits-Villages, which since 2026 covers precisely Prémeaux-Prissey, Comblanchien, and Corgoloin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOf the 41 Premier Cru climats of Nuits-Saint-Georges, twelve lie in Prémeaux, and many bear the name of a clos: Clos de la Maréchale, Clos Arlot, Clos des Corvées, Clos des Forêts Saint-Georges, Clos des Argillières, and Clos Saint-Marc, as well as Aux Perdrix, Les Didiers, and Les Terres Blanches. The vines face east and southeast between about 220 and 305 m; higher up the limestone rock is almost at the surface, lower down the deposits washed from the combe des Vallerots form deeper marly-limestone soils. Pinot Noir gives reds of deep purple, with cherry, strawberry, and blackcurrant when young and leather, truffle, and game with the years; the Premiers Crus have dense tannin and long staying power. Most of the appellation's scant Chardonnay grows here and gives rare whites, broad and firm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts fame is old: in 1816 Jullien placed the Clos de Prémeaux in the first class alongside the Saint-Georges, and the 1860 classification paved the way for the list of Premiers Crus recognized in 1943. In Prissey stands a thirteenth-century church, a listed historic monument since 1979.
