Note di degustazione
The 2016 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Saint-Georges 1er Cru has a tightly wound bouquet with a slight pastille-like purity, touches of blue fruit and violet emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black and red fruit, more saline than its peers with a very well balanced and persistent finish. There is a lot of "wine" in this Nuits Saint-Georges, gutsy and ambitious...and there is nothing wrong with that! Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting.

Bright medium red. Discreet, pristine scents of dark cherry, flowers and crushed rock. Wonderfully rich and fine-grained, offering outstanding inner-mouth tension to its medicinal red cherry and licorice flavors complicated by minerals, spices and flowers. Less accessible today than the Cailles (Chevillon noted that in November it was the other way around) but this wine really dances on the palate and rises inexorably on the sappy, mouthcoating finish.
The 2016 Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru Les Saint Georges has a very pretty, sensual bouquet with bright red cherries, blackcurrant, wilted rose petals and mineral aromas that appear to gain intensity with aeration. The palate is very well balanced with fine tannin, quite linear and strict at the moment, but you have to really stand back and admire the focus, energy and panache of this Les Saint-Georges. Great persistence on the classy finish that does not overdo it.
