Tasting Notes

88
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 04
Slightly gamey aromas of blackberry, black raspberry and leather. Fat, sweet and stuffed with dark berries and spices. Rather seamless in the middle palate, but a bit dry on the finish, with some intrusive oakiness. This may get a fining, says Potel.

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.
