Tasting Notes

92-94
Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Jan 19
The 2017 Nuits Saint-Georges Aux Murgers 1er Cru, matured in 60% new oak, has an expressive bouquet of dark berry fruit infused with bay leaf and black tea, the terroir a little more articulated than the Aux Thorey at the moment. The palate is smooth and sensual on the entry, an equal mixture of red and black fruit, with a gentle grip on the lightly peppered finish. Excellent.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 04 Jan 19
Aromas of raspberries, spices, dark chocolate, plums and sweet soil tones introduce the 2017 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Aux Murgers, a medium to full-bodied, deep and multidimensional wine, with excellent concentration, abundant but velvety structuring tannins and lovely mid-palate amplitude. Nuits' proclivity to rusticity is rendered with Vosne elegance.

Jancis Robinson Richard Hemming - 22 Jan 19
Closed nose with a few wisps of floral character escaping. Dry, chalky tannins and appetisingly savoury herby notes on the finish. Distinguished, lengthy, elegant. A fairly restrained Nuits-St-Georges, perhaps especially so from a warm vintage, but a great example of sensitive winemaking. (RH)

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.
