The 2020 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Perrières opens in the glass with aromas of wild berries, black cherries and sweet spices. Medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, it combines elevated ripeness with vibrant acids, concluding with a long, intensely mineral finish.

Coulis-like aromas include those of plum, black cherry, soft spice and cool earth nuances. The rich but exceptionally punchy medium weight flavors are not quite as refined but they're more powerful while exhibiting excellent length on the overtly austere and rustic finale.
