Nuits Corvees Pagets, Domaine Arnoux / Arnoux-Lachaux 2017

Tasting Notes

Vinified without any destemmed fruit, the 2017 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Clos des Corvées Pagets offers up notes of orange rind, rose petal, cherries and savory bass notes of forest floor. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, ample and gourmand, with supple tannins, a juicy core of fruit and a stony finish. It's a beautifully elegant, fragrant expression of Nuits-Saint-Georges.

A cool, pure and restrained nose grudgingly offers up pretty aromas of red currant, earth, lavender and a hint of the sauvage. There is excellent underlying tension to the delicious and well-detailed medium weight flavors that flash moderate rusticity on the firm, serious and mildly austere finish. This will definitely require at least a modicum of patience.
