Edmond Cornu & Fils – Le Bois Roussot 2018 – Ladoix 1er Cru

The nose is racy and offers elegance, a fine power as well as a fine and slightly tight grain. It reveals notes of blackberry, violet and small notes of crushed raspberry associated with touches of Cuben pear, nutmeg as well as hints of racy minerality, lilac, small blue berries and a subtle hint of zan. The palate is fruity and offers juiciness, suavity, a fine concentration, gourmandize, a good definition, a fine acidulous frame, a good guideline, harmony, racy minerality as well as juicy / acidulous and very slightly crunchy fruit. On the palate this wine expresses notes of juicy / acidulous cherry, juicy / acidulous raspberry and small notes of juicy purple plum associated with a touch of small red berries, blueberry, sweet spices as well as a hint of tea and a very discreet hint of chocolate. Presence of a subtle hint of toasted hazelnut on the finish / persistence. A very fine chew on the finish.
