2011 - Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Aux Chaignots, Georges Mugneret Gibourg

The 2011 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Chaignots 1er Cru has a pure and perfumed bouquet with lush red cherry and crushed strawberry fruit, finely integrated oak with just a hint of crushed rose petal. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, good density, pure with the right amount of salinity to leave you begging for another sip on the finish. There is a sense of completeness and harmony here. Wonderful. Tasted at Flint Wines Burgundy 2011 tasting.
