2019 Maison Evenstad Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Rue de Chaux

The 2019 Maison Evenstad Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru 'Rue de Chaux' is a gorgeous, fresh and balanced wine with a nose of dried bay leaf and pomegranate, and a palate of delineated mineral-rich crushed red raspberry and black cherry fruits accented by crushed rock and earthy tones. The palate is medium-bodied with smooth, silky tannins and a lush, balanced finish. Enjoy this one with a nice decant or over the next 12-15 months. It pairs well with butternut squash soup with pomegranate, Oeufs en Meurette, or truffles.

International Wine Report / Jeremy Young

"The 2019 Les Rue de Chaux from Maison Evenstad has a gorgeous bouquet of delineated mineral-rich crushed red raspberry and black cherry fruits accented by crushed rock and earthy tones. The palate is medium-bodied with smooth, silky tannins and a lush, balanced finish. Lovely salinity lingers on the mid-palate. Enjoy this one with a nice decant or over the next 12-15 months."
