black tea and cracked black pepper on the aftertaste

star anise

menthol and licorice blast across the palate

This resembles closely the nose of the villages as the composition of the aromas is similar except here there is greater elegance and a bit more complexity as well

This too is very Nuits in style and will need a few more years of bottle age as the supporting tannins are markedly firm

Jean-Marc Blain-Gagnard, Chassagne Montrachet Morgeot Blanc other_regions black tea and cracked black(from Les Boirettes and Champ Jendreau). Pretty, and distinctly floral suffused aromas include those of citrus rind and white fleshed fruit. The very rich and generously proportioned middle weight flavors possess plenty of sappy dry extract before terminating in a powerful and borderline tannic bitter lemon inflected finish. This would also benefit from at least a few years of keeping.
