For this 2023, she’s focused on preserving the \"crunch\" of the Pinot fruit. It’s been handled gently to keep the tannins fine and lacy, allowing the vineyard's natural fragrance to lead the way. It’s a transparent, pretty red that doesn't try too hard, which is exactly where its charm lies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExpect a hit of wild strawberry and red cherry, but there’s a lovely savoury, earthy undertone that grounds the wine. It’s got that classic Côte de Nuits spice and a refreshing, mineral-edged finish. This is a bright, vivacious Pinot that’s ready to enjoy now, showing off the cleaner, more elegant trajectory that Alussia is now firmly on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"This is deep, plush and attractively reductive. Direct, taught, juicy – that’s invigorating and ultra-delicious – bravo!!\"\u003cbr\u003e- Bill Nanson (Burgundy Report)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e","brand":"Domaine d'Alussia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43264615022635,"sku":"2023 Domaine d'Alussia Cotes de Nuits Villages La Toppe Citeau","price":109.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2572\/9722\/files\/2023Domained_AlussiaCotesdeNuitsVillagesLaToppeCiteau.png?v=1775799887","url":"https:\/\/www.differentdrop.com\/products\/2023-domaine-dalussia-cotes-de-nuits-villages-la-toppe-citeau","provider":"Different Drop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
