Tasting Notes

89-91
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Jan 16
Fresh medium red. Slightly reduced aromas of musky red berries, smoke and earth. Silky and rich, showing a restrained sweetness to the red berry and smoke flavors. Offers an attractive balance of fruit and salinity, with the finish featuring palate-saturating, fine-grained tannins and excellent length.

Nuits-Saint-Georges

Nuits-Saint-Georges, a renowned appellation in Burgundy's Côte de Nuits, is famous for its robust, structured Pinot Noir wines with rich flavours of dark cherries, blackberries, and plums, along with earthy, spicy notes. Known for firm tannins and full-bodied character, these wines are ideal for ageing. Although lacking Grand Cru vineyards, Premier Cru sites like Les Saint-Georges and Les Vaucrains produce exceptional wines. Top producers include Domaine Henri Gouges, Domaine Faiveley, and Domaine Robert Chevillon, all celebrated for showcasing the unique terroir with traditional winemaking.
