Domaine Jacques-Frederic Mugnier Nuits-Saint-Georges Clos des Fourches, Cote de Nuits, France 2023

“Clos des Fourches” 2023 is a beautifully refined and approachable expression of Nuits-Saint-Georges, crafted from the younger vines of the Clos de la Maréchale monopole. It opens with pure, lifted aromas of raspberry, Morello cherry, and wild strawberry, layered with violet, gentle spice, and a touch of mineral nuance. The palate is supple and silky, with fine grained tannins and a vibrant, fresh core that brings both precision and immediacy. More delicate and accessible than typical Nuits, it captures Mugnier’s signature elegance offering aromatic purity, balance, and quiet depth, with the structure to evolve gracefully over time.
