Pierre Naigeon – La Combe Bazin 2014 – Vieilles Vignes – Saint Romain

The nose is fine, intense and quite concentrated. It reveals notes of quince, ripe white fruits and physalis associated with a hint of honey as well as very a discreet hint of brioche. The palate is fruity, well-balanced, very slightly « perlante » (slightly sparkling character on the attack) and offers a beautiful minerality, freshness, a beautiful acid frame, a slight suavity as well sa a beautiful definition. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of ripe pear, nectarine/ripe brugnon and slight notes of ripe lemon associated with a very discreet hint of clementine as well as a subtle hint of exotic fruits and toasted oak. Good length.
