Ample acidity accentuates its salinity and provides lift, revealing notes of plum and clove against an elegant violet backdrop.

There is good volume and mid-palate sap as the medium-weight flavors possess a velvety and relatively refined texture where a touch of minerality adds a sense of lift to the sneaky long and youthfully austere finish.\" (Oct 2022)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e89-91 Points – Vinous Media:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The 2020 Nuits Saint-Georges Aux Perdrix 1er Cru, which intriguingly has \"Quasi Monopole\" on the label as a lady with a few rows denies the Domaine the full monopole, is planted at 13,000 vines per hectare. It has a well-defined nose with a mixture of red and black fruit, hints of espresso and dry tobacco surfacing with time. The palate is medium-bodied with red berry fruit, touches of meat juice and orange rind. There is fine depth here and gentle grip on the finish, though it just needs a touch more precision. Worth seeking out though, especially if you are in the mood for a quasi monopole and you did not buy Clos des Lambrays!\" – Neal Martin (Dec 2021)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SOUTHERN \/ AMERICAN \/ PACIFIC WINE \u0026 SPIRITS","offers":[{"title":"750 mL","offer_id":53158912164205,"sku":null,"price":179.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0481\/8940\/7391\/files\/perdperd.png?v=1774442693","url":"https:\/\/artisan.wine\/products\/domaine-des-perdrix-1er-cru-aux-perdrix-nuits-saint-george-2020-burgundy-france-we-94-ws-93-bh-91-vm-89-91","provider":"Artisan W\u0026S","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
