Jean Chauvenet 2017 Nuits St. Georges "Les Perrieres" 1er Cru 750ml

This too is ripe enough to exhibit liqueur-like qualities along with abundant wood influence yet the aromas of spiced plum, earth and violet are super-fresh. Consistent with the freshness of the nose the focused and almost painfully intense flavors are cool and focused while delivering excellent length and complexity on the balanced finale. The palate impression is akin to rolling rocks around in the mouth and overall, this is extremely promising provided you have the patience to cellar it.
