Tasting Notes

92-94
Vinous Neal Martin - 17 Jan 24
The 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Chaignots 1er Cru has a well-defined bouquet with Morello cherries, crushed strawberry, potpourri and touches of white truffle. The palate is medium-bodied with a smooth texture, the 50% new oak making this very sleek and sensual. It’s a fruit-driven and luscious Les Chaignots with hints of blood orange and quince, finishing with a dash of pepper. Very fine.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 18 Jan 24
The 2022 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Chaignots is ripe and flamboyant, bursting with aromas of sweet berries and cherries mingled with those petals, orange zest and spices. Medium to full-bodied, rich and layered, with a broad and textural attack that segues into a seamless core of fruit, this will offer a broad drinking window.

Cask sample. A lot more wood evident here. Both nose and palate are distinctly 'chewy'. Firm tannin and vibrant acidity on the palate. Not so generous at the moment but should soften. Needs revisiting in a couple of years. (AWH)
