Note di degustazione
Good medium red. Raspberry, strawberry and spice aromas were initially a bit dulled by oak, but aeration brought some of the floral high notes shown by the other Pacalet '15s. Then juicy, spicy and herbal on the palate, showing modest flesh and restrained sweetness and a youthfully medicinal quality. A distinctly peppery, dry Nuits-Saint-Georges with a firm dusting of tannins and good length. A bit austere in the context of this collection but with no shortage of cherry and dark berry intensity. This needs a good three or four more years of cellaring.

Cask sample. 2008 onwards. Very little clay. 12,000 vines per ha. 65-70 years old. Liqueur nose. Very seductive. Dries a little towards the end. Needs lots of time. Bright fruit. (JR)
The Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er cru Les Argillas is a lovely wine in the making – but currently somewhat reduced. It comes from a terroir located on the northern side of Nuit-Saint-Georges, just south of Aux Thorey. In the nose fine delicate red and dark fruit notes spiced with some cinnamon and white peppar – all induced by a fine earthy minerality. On the palate lovely fruit .. fine core of red and dark berries – notes of pomegranate – very good energy and nerve. It’s quite refined for the appellation … really enjoyable.
