cedar wood
Insignia is especially silky
This is also quite tightly coiled and a wine that will need all of a decade to reach its peak
Starts out better than it finishes
the nose is fantastically floral
Lucien Le Moine, Nuits Saint Georges Cailles other_regions cedar woodA very ripe nose offers up aromas of roasted plum, cassis and spice. The medium bodied flavors are not particularly dense (though neither are they dilute) while the lightly mineral suffused finish is grippy, drying and a bit short. I fear the hail damage explains the raspy tannins.
