Christophe Pauchard, Domaine de la Confrérie 2017 – Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune

The nose is a bit tight and offers a certain power as well as a fine intensity. The wine needs to be decanted. It reveals notes of wild blackberry, clove and small notes of of fleshy cherry, crushed raspberry associated with a small toasted touch, cassis, camphor as well as a discreet hint of pepper. The palate is fresh, fruity and offers juiciness, minerality, a good definition, a beautiful gourmandize, a fine acidulous frame, a nice finesse of the suavity, precision, a very fine straightness as well as dynamism. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy / fresh blackberry, bright cherry and small notes of bright raspberry associated with touches of cherry blossoms, cornflowers, hints of zan, cloves as well as a discreet a hint of saffron and nutmeg. Good length.
