2022 Nuits St Georges La Charmotte

This bright, fresh wine shows forward black cherry fruit with hints of violets and spice. The texture is light and elegant, yet the wine is not lacking in structure, and the finish is elegant and reasonably long. The grapes come from a 0.40-hectare domaine-owned parcel on the flat land at the base of the slope down from premier cru Bousselots; 40% are fermented as whole clusters, with just two punch-downs and a very gentle extraction to produce this charming wine.
