2016 Nuits St Georges La Richemone

The 2016 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru La Richemone reveals aromas of blackberries, dark chocolate, licorice and smoky new oak, followed by a medium to full-bodied, rich and concentrated palate that's dominated by chewy tannins, concluding with a grippy, extractive finish. This is another wine from Michelot where a lighter touch with extraction would have paid dividends, as the wine is dominated by its structure.
