2020 Côte de Nuits-Villages Rouge, Domaine Sylvie Esmonin
The 2020 Côte de Nuits Villages was taken from a new barrel though the final blend will contain 30%. As a consquecne, the oak did rather dominated the aromatics, though the palate is sweet and candied on the entry with more red fruit than the Bourgogne Rouge, quite fleshy on the lightly spiced finish. Enjoy over the next 10 to 15 years.
