Domaine Guy & Yvan Dufouleur – Les Crots 2020 – Nuits-Saint-Georges, Premier Cru

The wine beneficiates from being decanted. Nice elegant and racy nose, which offers a certain density/richness, some spiciness as well as a slight and discreetly tight grain. It reveals notes of violet, ripe purple plum, and slight notes of morello cherry associated with touches of toast, graphite, sweet spices, as well a subtle hint of clove. The mouth is nice, well-built, a bit aerial in its density/richness, nicely tangy and offers energy, a good guideline, a tangy frame, roundness, delicacy. All in finesse. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of violet plum, blueberry, and more slightly – notes of crunchy cherry combined with touches of currants as well as hints of nutmeg, toast, mocha, and a hint of clove. Nice freshness and minerality.
