Take the stress out of buying a gift, let them choose exactly what they want.
These vines were planted in 1965 and 1972. Aux Murgers is one of the warmer, and therefore earlier ripening sites in Nuits, and this 2023 is full of charm with a perfume of spiced dark cherry, and fleshy seamless mid-palate. The finish shows both power and energy yet without sacrificing a sense of finesse.

The 2023 Nuits Saint-Georges Aux Murgers 1er Cru has a fragrant bouquet, with dried rose petal scents and hints of orange blossom that tincture red berry fruit. This has more complexity compared to the Les Boudots. The palate is medium-bodied with gritty tannins. With hints of graphite, black cherries and an almost Morey-like finish in terms of structure, I can see this aging well in bottle.
A bright vigorous purple. The nose starts very well, dark cherry and blackberry, while the fruit on the palate is in more luxurious mode, possibly the sample needs freshening. This is in morello cherry territory with quite a coating of oak. More sumptuous all round than Boudots, so depends which style you prefer. Higher alcohol, just under 14%. Drink from 2031-2037. Tasted Nov 2024.
