The intense

very distinctive nose

powerful and serious larger-scaled flavors possess plenty of sappy dry extract which helps to buffer both the very firm acid spine as well as a touch of tannin on the bitter lemon

Domaine Bellene, Nuits Saint Georges Chaignots Vintage:2009 and has many years aheadHere the nose is much spicier though its Nuits origins are in evidence as there is plenty of earth present on the blackberry and lightly menthol infused aromas. The mouth coating flavors are seductively textured with excellent volume though the finish is quite firm and moderately rustic with a touch of austerity. This should be excellent in time as there is the necessary mid palate concentration to buffer the tannins. (90 93) 2019+
