2019 Nuits-St-Georges 1er Cru Les Murgers, Hudelot-Noëllat

2019 Nuits-St-Georges 1er Cru Les Murgers, Hudelot-Noëllat

Les Murgers is one of the finest positioned vineyards in Nuits, in the heart of the hillside on the Vosne-Romanée side of the town. In 2019, this is sensationally aromatic on the nose. The tannins are fairly firm and straight, but then wrapped in this gorgeous summer fruit coulis character. Outstanding.

Tasting notes

The 2019 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Murgers 1er Cru was the most backward on the nose among the domaine’s 2019s, delivering sultry black fruit, loam and touches of damp leaves. The palate is nicely structured, more muscular than the Au Bas de Combe, and displaying fine mineralité, although it needs to develop just a touch more sustain on the aftertaste. It will certainly need 3–4 years in bottle before it shows what it can do.
