Manuel Olivier 2016 – Aloxe-Corton

The nose is fruity, finely tight and offers a small concentration. This wine should be decanted. It reveals notes of plum, blackberry and small notes of small wild red fruits associated with touches of cornflower, violet, zan as well as discreet hints of mocha, toasted, spices/nutmeg and an imperceptible hint of vanilla (in the background). The palate is fruity, mineral, juicy, fresh, well-balanced, precise, racy and offers a good structure, energy as well as a fine power (in the background). On the palate this wine expresses notes of fleshy/crunchy cherry, fleshy/crunchy plum and small notes of juicy/crunchy blackberry associated with small touches of crunchy/juicy red fruits, hints of flowers as well as discreet hints of mocha and spices. Tannins are elegant and well-built.
