Mongeard-Mugneret Vougeot 1er Cru Les Cras Pinot Noir 2017 (France)

Mongeard-Mugneret Vougeot 1er Cru Les Cras Pinot Noir 2017 displays a deep, radiant colour with purplish-violet hues that highlight its intensity. The nose reveals aromas of violets alongside red and black fruits such as raspberries, Morello cherries, mulberries, and blackcurrants, occasionally accented by cocoa. These scents lend the wine elegance and charm. With age, it develops complex notes of woodland undergrowth, dead leaves, truffles, and subtle animal nuances. On the palate, it offers a refined structure with delicate tannins, a pure attack, and a harmonious balance of fleshiness and acidity, sometimes revealing a touch of liquorice.
