Nuits Saint Georges Village
Il s’agit de vins d’association entre quelques parcelles
(soit 1,70 hectares au total) situées au sud du bourg de Nuits, et une
autre, sise en haut du talus, dites “Jacquinot”, idéalement placée
au-dessus des premiers crus. De bonne constitution, ces vins illustrent à
merveille la typicité des Nuits, tant en longueur qu’en puissance.
BURGHOUND 2011
2009 Nuits St.-Georges: (from 4 different parcels scattered above and below the 1ers and the blend of vines averages about 35 years of age). Here the nose is notably ripe with a very primary, indeed even still rather unevolved nose of red pinot fruit and distinct earth nuances where this earthiness is a major component of the rich, delicious and quite serious medium-bodied flavors that possess a velvety mouth feel thanks to the ample dry extract that buffers the otherwise firm tannins. Like the Bourgogne, this could be drunk relatively soon though it should easily reward 6 to 8 years of cellar time. (87-90)/2014+
