Nathalie Richez 'Petites Combes' Cote Chalonnaise Rouge

$57.00 USD

Nathalie owns a 0.5-hectare parcel of early-1980s-planted Pinot Noir in the village of Fontaines, bordering Mercurey’s northeast corner and abutting the well-known premier cru Clos des Myglands (a monopole of Domaine Faiveley). Her just-so touch with extraction is evident here, as this is breezy without being slight, presenting its pretty Pinot fruit with tenderness yet also possessing enough depth and structure to tie the earth-kissed flavors into a nice clean package. This spends 18 months in 20% new oak.
