2015 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Poisets Domaine Arnoux-Lachaux

The 2015 Nuits-Saint- Georges Les Poisets reveals a beautifully floral, pure nose of rose petal, violets and raspberry. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, ample and deep, with a vibrant core of fruit, fine- grained tannins and a chalky finish. The lieu-dit of Les Poisets is located below Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Cailles, and was vinified with 100% whole cluster this year. 2020 - 2035

Dark red with ruby tones. Deeper on the nose than the village Vosne, if not iniitially offering the same éclat of that wine; dark berry aromas are complicated by emerging notes of licorice, violet and mint. Plush and broad but quite airy and dry, offering an intriguing combination of thick texture and crunchy fruit. Plenty of stuffing for its ripe tannins. Displays a mineral quality on the spreading, glistening finish. The pH here is a rather high 3.77 but this wine does not lack for energy.
