NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Jacques-Frederic Mugnier Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Clos de la Maréchale Blanc unveils itself with a shimmering pale gold hue.Aromas waft from the glass, suggesting fresh orchard fruits like pear and apple, intertwined with hints of citrus blossoms, flint, and a touch of creamy oak. The palate is an exploration of balance, where ripe fruit notes find harmony with a striking minerality, underscored by a fine line of acidity. Notes of toasted almond and subtle spices add layers of depth. The finish lingers, resonating with the wine's mineral core and its exquisite fruit character, a lasting tribute to its prestigious origins.
