Note di degustazione
Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting in Beaune, the 2013 Nuits Saint-Georges 1er Cru Aux Chaignots was showing a little brettanomyces on the nose, which detracted from its delineation and fruit expression. The palate is chewy on the entry, more extracted than its peers with black cherries, sandalwood and undergrowth notes, but it feels rather sullen and overly serious. Hopefully it will muster more joie-de-vivre with bottle age. Tasted September 2016.

Medium red. Aromas of cherry, blueberry, raspberry and menthol. Tangy and savory, offering good cut but modest flesh to the flavors of black cherry, pungent red berries, licorice and menthol. Finishes a touch green, with fine-grained tannins and a note of tart red cherry.
A little light but has some pretty berry, cedar and spice character. Medium body. It starts off lightly, but then develops nicely. Drink or hold.
Delicate dark fruit aroma but then pretty dry, almost chalky, on the palate. Definite cardboardy flavour. (JH)
