Perrot Minot, Nuits Saint Georges Richemone Ultra VvNA

finesse and elegance

You either like the 100% whole-bunch style

this is a stunner of a wine with still plenty of upside potential remaining

rich but not a bit heavy

There is better verve to the large-scaled flavors that are not quite as dense as those of the Bressandes but do offer good power on the very firm finish that is again shaped by relatively grippy and inelegant tannins

while cherry

spicy black fruit aromas that lead to velvety

The more mineraldriven and slightly more refined medium weight flavors evidence fine length on the intensely lemony

The 2013 vintage is characterized by a slightly more streamlined mouthfeel (which isn't saying much given the baseline enormity of these wines) with carefully etched aromas of black cherry

black truffle and smoke that soar from the glass

I very much like the texture to the nicely dense medium-bodied flavors that possess a noticeably finer mouthfeel if not the same power on the bone-dry

The charmingly round and seductively textured mediumbodied flavors possess a caressing mouthfeel before culminating in a lingering finish that moderately tightens up on the balanced and lingering finish
