Tasting notes

The 2019 Nuits Saint-Georges La Gerbotte, which comes from a cool microclimate adjacent to the Clos de la Maréchale, has a well-defined nose of citrus fruit infused with light gravel/concrete aromas. The palate is well balanced with a fine attack on the entry and notes of orange peel, tangerine and peach skin. It takes its foot off the accelerator toward the finish, which develops a pleasing waxy texture. Very fine and nuanced.
