Gorgeous cherry red in colour. The expressive, fresh nose offers aromas of baked goods, such as a decadent raspberry and redcurrant tart, almond cookie, and stewed cherries. Wilder scents, typical of Nuits-Saint-Georges wines (basket willow, brambles, boxwood, juniper) then emerge. Subtle nuances of chalk and limestone. Fresh, mineral start to the palate, supported by saline tautness that gives structure and lastingness to the wine. Flavours of redcurrant and sour cherry. The tannins are extremely fine grained, bold and remarkably well integrated. Nuances of blackcurrant, gingerbread, then cumin then surface. This wine is all finesse and so representative of its appellation that it truly pays homage to the terroirs of Nuits-Saint-Georges. The finish hints at delicate, iodine-like aromas. This chiseled, precise, pure wine is ideal for laying down and will reveal its full potential as it ages.
