A whiff of wood is present on the expressive and vaguely exotic nose that offers up notes of algae

Jacques Prieur, Beaune Clos Feguine Rouge Brut Zero and he tells me that(a 1. 59 ha climat of Coucherias and a monopole of the domaine). A well layered mix of both red and dark currant is trimmed in ripe nuances of plum and violets. The exceptionally rich, suave and seductively textured flavors possess an opulent mouth feel while delivering reasonably good length on the dusty and mineral inflected finish. Note that this rather plump effort could easily be enjoyed young. (87 90) 2021+
