Tasting Notes

90
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 17
Bright, dark red. A basket of dark berries on the nose, plus a complicating element of smoky oak. At once juicy and smooth, showing lovely floral lift to its flavors of dark berries and licorice. Finishes with firm but fine-grained tannins and very good persistence, leaving behind slightly inky violet and licorice notes. This wine could probably be enjoyed already with a meat dish.

Nuits-Saint-Georges

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.
