The Clos des Fourches comes exclusively from the plot of Clos de la Maréchale, located at the very southern tip of Nuits-Saint-Georges. Frédéric Mugnier has chosen to isolate the young vines (less than 20-25 years old) under this historic name to ensure the excellence of his Premier Cru. The Clos de la Maréchale has the ripest fruit of any in the Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier range. That’s not to say this isn’t elegant: its fresh palate and fine-grained tannins keep the rich cherry, black plum and raspberry fruit in check. Succulent, round and full, this offers sophistication in abundance.
