Note di degustazione
The 2021 Nuits Saint-Georges Aux Chaignots 1er Cru has a very Vosne-like bouquet with pure black plums, blueberry and pressed violet scents that blossom in the glass. It shows fine delineation, though it is quite bold and perhaps flashy in style. Eventually, it seems more intent on impressing, and I wonder if there is much behind it. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit. Quite a "solid" Nuits Saint-Georges, grippy but missing elegance and complexity towards the slightly forced finish. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

The 2021 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Chaignots 1er Cru was cropped at 17hL/ha with around 50% new oak. It has an exquisite, floral bouquet with dark berry fruit, peony and wilted roses, gaining intensity in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with finely-chiselled tannins, an almost citric line of acidity with a tensile, linear yet compelling finish. Wonderful.
Cropped at a derisory 16 hectoliters per hectare, the Mugnerets were obliged to retain some whole bunches with the 2021 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Chaignots simply to fill the fermentation vat. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and concentrated, with sweet tannins and an ample core of fruit, it's redolent of wild berries, rose petals and spices.
