NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru 'Les Chaignots' 2016 is an exquisite, complex Burgundy red wine.On the nose it reveals aromas of ripe dark fruits such as blackberry, blueberry and black cherry, accompanied by subtle hints of spice, earth and leather. On the palate, it is lush and velvety with a bright acidity that is well-balanced with the ripe dark fruit flavors. The finish is long and lingering, with notes of minerals and fine tannins. Enjoy this lovely wine now or cellar for even more complexity.
