Domaine Charles – Terra Cotta 2018 – Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune

The nose is aromatic and offers a fine intensity. It reveals notes of ripe wild raspberry, ripe cherry and small notes of ripe plum associated with touches of violet, rose, discreet hints of spices, a subtle hint of local grove, cherry blossoms as well as an imperceptible hint of pepper and dried earth. The palate is fruity and offers juiciness, a small minerality, an acidulous frame, a fine tension as well as a small straightness. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy / juicy cherry, juicy / fresh raspberry and small notes of cherry blossoms associated with touches of crunchy plum, cornflowers, hints of sweet spices, fresh tobacco as well as with a very discreet hint of local grove, pepper and an imperceptible hint of tea. Tannins are supple and integrated. Good length. Presence of a very discreet almost chocolate hint on the aftertaste.
