Proprietors of world-renowned vineyards and wineries in Oregon and Burgundy, Ken and Grace Evenstad crafted Maison Evenstad to offer collectible and extremely limited wines that showcase the rich and diverse terroir found only in Burgundy.

The Les Didiers vineyard is planted on a matrix of deep limestone soils and shares a border with the illustrious Les Saint-Georges vineyard. Les Didiers is known for its outstanding Pinot Noirs of elegance and complexity.

A stunning offering, the 2018 Maison Evenstad, Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Les Didiers Pinot Noir opens with a strong impression of cherry, clove and plum skin. On the palate, a dusty and weighty texture interplays with intense and alluring darker, almost black, cherry fruit flavors. Delicate nuances of wildflower-stem overlaid with chamomile root entice. Abundant and powerful, the fruit intensity harmoniously integrates with the evolved tannins and elegant minerality, offering an unctuous mouthfeel. Vines ranging from 50-100 years old elicit outstanding characteristics of finesse and sophistication, making this wine a remarkably distinct offering.
