Nuits St Georges 1er Cru Mugneret 2006

Clear but dark purple and concentrated in color with ruby and garnet hued edges and slow thin legs. Aromas of bold and spicy tart fruit including cherries, blackcurrants and blackberries with balanced layers of toasted oak, earthy scents, gunpowder and a distinct star-anise component. Taste: concentrated and tangy black (blackcurrant & blackberry) and red fruit (cherry) with underpinnings of its distinctly earthy Terroir, star-anise, and gun power. Long finish, clean with tangy fruit.

Initially cool, wet, and smooth, then dry and full-bodied, with firm and solid tannic structure. Give this wine some time to open after you pop the cork to experience it's full elegance.
