Tasting notes

The 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges Aux Murgers 1er Cru is actually similar to the Aux Thorey on the nose: quite pixelated with vivacious, mineral-rich red fruit exuding transparency. The palate is well-structured and concentrated, with richer black fruit and firm grip. There’s a touch of Asian spice towards the muscular finish (perhaps due to the small berries) - this is a long-term proposition. Fabulous.

(94—96)/100

Five new barrels in nine. A lively purple colour. The bouquet shows some of the headier qualities of Vosne-Romanée allied to the ballast of Nuits-St-Georges. No black fruit notes in this wine, purely concentrated red berries backed by both acidity and tannins, leading to a fine long finish. Very satisfactory. Drink from 2030-2037. Tasted: November 2023.
