Domaine du Château de Melin Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Rouge

***$$$$

More of a fruit forward wine but some complexity is there. Wish it had a bit more intensity. Appearance Pale, ruby. Nose Medium - medium (+) intensity, developing. Red cherry, vanilla, red plum, strawberry, forest floor, earth, cloves. Palate Dry, high acidity, medium tannin, medium alcohol, medium - medium (+) body. Medium flavour intensity, long finish. Conclusion Very good (The G of very good). Can drink now but has potential for ageing.

Simple et frais, assez fruité et digeste. Un peu court en finale. Bien.

Decanted due to young age. Drank this before the Meursault from the same house and the difference was mind blowing. This wine has a very good price quality balance and you get a lot of wine for this price. Classic white burgundy nose and good minerality. Acidity a bit high but should subside with the years. Great white burgundy for a casual day or to start drinking this type of wine.
