Domaine AF. Gros Moulin-A-Vent En Mortperay 2019 Burgundy Red Wine

The 2019 "En Mortperay" serves major aromatics, pushing specific notes of dark cherries, crushed raspberries, and loud violet florals. Because it's grown on sandy granite soils, the mineral tension is high and the tannic backbone is intensely grippy, leaving the palate feeling super austere and aggressive right now. The bright acidity keeps the core lively and mouthwatering. The fruit profile straight-up ghosts you on the finish, dropping off way too early and leaving behind an unyielding block of tannin. It’s a heavily structured Cru that absolutely needs cellaring to stop acting so tight.
