The Paarl Valley is a South African wine-producing region that is known for its viticulture, lush landscapes, and beautiful orchards. The wine region is surrounded by beautiful mountain ranges and has a lovely warm climate and nice cool breezes in the autumn. The town of Paarl is one of the oldest European towns of South Africa, but its name is pronounced differently by the Africans. This region is home to many wineries and is a popular destination for wine-tasting and touring. The Paarl Valley mostly features white wine grapes, but the location is prime for reds as well. Since the luxurious climate of the region is typically warmer compared with regions such as Stellenbosch, red wine grape varieties tend to grow quite well there. These varieties tend to grow well typically in high elevation. The wine region is known for varieties of Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, or Chenin Blanc , Chardonnay and Semillon varieties that grow in the region.
The city of Paarl is known for Nelson Mandela’s exit from the now Drakenstein Correctional Center after almost 30 years in prison. The region is also known for the beautiful Pearl Mountain or Paaral Rock, which is a large rock that has been compared to the many wonders around the world.

Louis Jadot Nuits Saint George is made from 100 percent Pinot Noir.
The Nuits-Saint-Georges A.C. wines are produced on land delimited by the parishes of Nuits-Saint-Georges and Premeaux-Prissey. The soils are basically composed of limestone and marl. A perfect exposure to the east gives the capacity to produce splendid wines. The grapes bear small little dark red berries. The bunches are destemmed; they macerate in open vats during 4 weeks helping this subtle terroir to reveal itself. After devatting, the wines are aged in oak barrels during 18 months.
Pairs with roasted salmon, roasted chicken, grilled red meat : beef, lamb chops, osso bucco, stew, ragout, bœuf bourguignon, duck, partridge, quail, deer, young wild boar, teppanyaki beef, mashed potatoes with salted butter, Cîteaux, Mont d’Or.
Review:
"A dark, blackberry- and black cherry–laced red, with earth and iron accents, a reserved character and a dense structure. Oak spice elements emerge on the lingering finish. Best from 2022 through 2033. 400 cases imported."
