Domaine Sébastien Magnien – Clos de la Perrière 2018 – Bourgogne Hautes-Cotes de Beaune

The nose is fruity, very finely tight and offers a fine concentration, a certain complexity/power. It reveals notes of pulpy blackberry, cherry, small notes of small berries associated with touches of zan, small crunchy blue fruits, violet as well as very discreet hints of spices, rose woold and an imperceptible hint of pepper. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, very discreetly tight and offers an acidulous frame, juiciness, tension, finesse as well as a certain intensity, a fine richness, precision, gourmandize, a small racy minerality and a fine grain. On the palate this wine expresses notes of pulpy/juicy blackberry, violet plum, small notes of small juicy blue fruits as well as hints of racy minerality, tonka bean and toasted. A very discreet hint of cardamom and salinity on the finish. Tannins are well-built. Good length. A saline, toasted/grilled hint on the persistence.
