Beautifully complex cuvée with red fruit aromas, crafted with a small portion of Pinot Noir wine which imparts a subtle salmon tinge.
The 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Murgers 1er Cru, a vineyard of which two-thirds is being re-planted, has a fruit-driven bouquet: blackberry and raspberry, touches of crushed rock and hedgerow. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins. It’s a structu...
