Nuits-Saint-Georges from Domaine du Clos Frantin, 2019 is a classic expression of the appellation, combining depth, structure and refined fruit. The nose opens with dark cherry and blackberry, layered with subtle notes of violet, forest floor and gentle spice. On the palate it is supple yet serious, with ripe, finely woven tannins supporting a core of concentrated fruit and a savoury, persistent finish. The 2019 vintage in the Côte de Nuits delivered excellent ripeness balanced by freshness, resulting in wines that are both generous and well defined. In this bottling, Clos Frantin’s organic vineyard work and careful élevage shine through, producing a Nuits-Saint-Georges that offers immediate charm alongside the structure to age gracefully over the coming years.
