Of his vineyards totaling a mere 1 hectate, the first plot was Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Herbues, and in 2013 he came by 3 more plots - one of century-old Aligoté vines near to Pernand-Vergelesses, another Gamay within Nuits-Saint-Georges, the third a Pinot Noir vineyard designated as Bourgogne within the Cote de Nuits. 2015 brought an opportunity to manage and produce a vineyard in Aloxe-Corton. He also holds a day job managing the vineyards of his wife, Amelie Berthaut of Berthaut-Gerbet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNicolas' wines are scintillating, pure and expressive of their origin...not shy on flavor by any means, following many of the methods of his mentors and idols - the vertical press of Leroy, the farming and strenuous selection of DRC, and the naturally low-yielding crops of his old vineyards all serve to create wines with an unmistakable signature of quality.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Veritas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47718814187707,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0591\/5335\/0843\/files\/shot_20260424143106.jpg?v=1777515515","url":"https:\/\/www.buvonswine.com\/products\/nicolas-faure-aligote-les-vignes-blanches","provider":"Buvons Wine LB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
