Once again there is a lot of wood influence infusing the fresh and very ripe aromas of cassis, black cherry and similar soft earth wisps. There is better volume and mid-palate density to the relatively sleek and appealingly textured flavors that flash only a trace of rusticity on the youthfully austere, complex and sneaky long finish. The wood isn't shy but this is a very good wine. Drink: 2026+ - BH89
The 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Plateaux is one of the more reserved wines in the range, opening up with aromas of ripe berries, spices, licorice and soil. Medium to full-bodied, firm and muscular, it's undeniably powerful, and more than a little introverted at this youthful stage. Drink: 2025~2045 - WA89
The village of Vosne Romanee entered in the Burgundy history in 636. It was at the beginning of the XVII century that is first noted the name "Mongeard" in the registry. For more than eight generations, the Mongeard family has been established in Vosne Romanee, right in the midst of the Cote de Nuits, producing wine with an utmost respect for tradition.
Since then and through all the generations, the family is committed to their passion: Vine and Wine. The Domaine Mongeard-Mugneret, renamed since 1945, now operates a large vineyard in the purist of the burgundy tradition, My grand-father was Eugene Mongeard and my grand-mother Edmee Mugneret.
