2024, Domaine Mongeard-Mugneret, NUITS-SAINT-GEORGES, 'Les Plateaux'Village level but all from the Plateaux vineyard that sits on the same mid slope (just north) as 1ers crus Les Pruliers and Les Procs.

Gorgeous dark ruby colour with vivid reflections

the lively floral side of Chambolle

Production is one 456 barrel

but also dried flowers like violets and roses

This has another very intense nose with a potent graphite element that infuses the black fruit

had started re-experimenting with distillation using an old still in the winery and became well known for his pear brandy “La Poire du Roulot

dark chocolate and Chinese five spice erupt from the glass

it comes storming out of the glass with powerful scents of stewed black plums

powdery tannins and animated by lively acids

This is pretty closed on the nose compared to some and also a little more about texture and less about fruit on the palate

the Blanc is full of vibrancy

Quite delicious
