when we picked more on acid than ripeness

This wine is ready to drink and will compliment any Autumnal or Winter fare well

there is emphatic loganberry and currant fruit

which in this vintage is a classic blend of 60% Mourvedre

those wilted violet petals infusing the boysenberry and blueberry fruit

2016 Nuits-St Georges, Benjamin Leroux, Burgundy Size:75cl when we picked more onWood toast and reduction dominate the nose today. By contrast, there is good freshness and verve to the beautifully delineated, punchy, bold flavours that display taut muscularity before concluding in a slightly dry, austere, lightly stony finish. My predicted range offers the benefit of the doubt that the dryness will age out as the supporting tannins seem ripe. Drink from 2022 onward. Allen Meadows, Burghound. com (Apr 2018)
