Note di degustazione
Good deep red-ruby. Superripe aromas of chocolatey dark fruits and mellow oak; slightly liqueur-like. Sweet, dense and fat with fruit, if a bit deeper in pitch than it appeared to be from barrel a year ago. Wonderfully creamy and chocolatey wine that finishes with substantial, thoroughly ripe tannins.

The 2005 Nuits-St.-Georges Aux Boudots displays an alluring sweetness of black cherry, and nutmeg, and cocoa powder. Yet for all of its obvious, generous ripeness and expansiveness, silken texture, it retains a fine fruit edge. Meat and minerals may come later. With ravishing, seductive length, it is an early charmer that might also be a keeper; but plan to revisit and relish it in 2-3 years. Between the effects of drought and of localized hail (in May, before it could effect quality) Jean-Nicolas Meo reported one of his smallest-ever harvests. His production, however, is being boosted these days by a range of negociant wines under the label “Meo-Camuzet Frere et Soeur” (marked “F&S” in the listing above). The top wines had been assembled in tank and sulfured in preparation for bottling, and were suffering a bit on account of this. Importer: Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley, CA; tel.

Bright ruby-red. High-pitched aromas of blackberry, spice, licorice and minerals. Fat and sweet, with enticing dark berry flavors lifted by minerals and spices. Very fresh and impressively long on the back end, where the wine saturates the palate with flavors of dark berries, chocolate and minerals. Boudots is often wonderful in its youth, notes Meo.
