Domaine Hoffmann-Jayer 2018 – Côte de Nuits-Village

The nose is flowery and offers a small intensity as well as good definition. It reveals notes of fresh / pulpy cassis, small wild red fruits and small notes of violet associated with touches of fleshy plum, rose, lilac as well as a fine hint of black tea, zan and vanilla / toasted. The palate is fruity, well-balanced and offers an acidulous frame, juiciness, a good definition, gourmandize, a certain tension, precision, a fine freshness as well as pulpy / elegant fruit. On the palate this wine expresses notes of bright plum, juicy / fresh blackberry and small notes of raspberry associated with touches of fresh / juicy blue berries, cornflowers, lilies, chocolate as well as hints of caramelization, lilac, almond and a very discreet hint of black tea (in the background). Tannins are elegant and precise. Good length.
