Michel Magnien Cote de Nuits Villages
£41.00
Taste
Red fruit Burgundian delight
Aroma
Complex notes
Description
The Côte de Nuits extends over around twenty kilometres, and the area is a long narrow strip of Burgundy vineyards, no wider than a kilometre, extending over 1,500 hectares. The special feature of the soil is its relatively old layer of limestone said to date from the “Middle Jurassic” and be between 160 and 180 million years old. This is a harmonious blend from various plots of Pinot Noir from the small village of Brochon. Only the best grapes from the best plots make it into the final cuvée. This special Burgundy has a fruity, perfumed nose that dances on the palate rather than overpowering it and nice, spice-tinged red cherry fruit with wonderful minerality, a supple mouthfeel and balanced acidity. Its nice velvety structure and fine-grained tannins linger on the palate.
