2009 Nuits-St-Georges 1er Cru Les Chaignots, Georges Mugneret-Gibourg
Produced from 45-50 year-old vines and utilising 50% new oak barrels, there is a noticable lavender, almost garrigue-like nose of both red and black berried fruits. There is an liqueur-esque richness to the fruit, such is the concentration. On the palate there is
mouth-coating richness and a notable hint of all-spice. Freshness and gently forceful tannins complete this impressive effort.
