Clos Marey-Monge Nicolas-Joseph 2017
-
Behind its intense ruby color, our Nicolas-Joseph 2017 reveals a nose full of black fruits aromas, including blackcurrant and blackberries. The palate confirms these flavors, alongside notes of sweet spices like cloves and cinnamon. With well-rounded tannins, it is a full-bodied and fleshy Pommard Pinot Noir drinkable from now on, that can also wait a few years to reach its apogee.
