Butterfield – Aux Murgers 2016 – Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru

The nose is aromatic, gourmand and offers a small concentration, gourmandize, a fine freshness as well as a small creamy side. It reveals notes of cassis cream, fleshy blackberry, small notes of fleshy raspberry associated with small touches of violet, cherry as well as fine hints of lily, graphite, sweet spices, tonka bean and a very discreet hint of vanilla pod (in the background). The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers a small tension, a small straightness, precision, a fine suavity, a fine fat as well as juiciness and a good definition. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy/acidulous cassis, fleshy plum, small notes of small juicy/fleshy red berries associated with small touches of cherry, violet as well as fine hints of graphite, rose wood, fine hints of liquorice stick and an imperceptible hint of bergamot. Good length. Tannins are finely firm.
