Domaine Michel Juillot
Clos Tonnerre Mercurey 1er Cru Pinot Noir
Tonight I have opened a Pinot Noir from Burgundy. The nose brings a beautiful Strawberry, Cranberry, a bit herbaceous, a little smokey oak, some mushroom and wet stone. on the palate I get hit right away with cherries, under ripe strawberries, sassafras, rhubarb and mushroom. There are medium tannins a bit drying, medium acidity, toasty oak and forest floor. Not a bad burgundy and at $23.99 very doable.
