Note di degustazione
Since fully 1.5 hectares of vines produced a mere four barrels of wine, it's no surprise that the 2016 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Chaignots is preternaturally concentrated, and tasted blind I mistook it for the domaine's Cailles. Unfurling in the glass with notes of rose petals, violets, orange rind and ripe cherries, the wine is medium to full-bodied, deep and strikingly intense, structured around rich, velvety tannins that caress the palate, and concluding with a long, beautifully lively finish. Readers who can find a few bottles shouldn't hesitate.

(just 9 barrels produced from 1.5 hectares; like the following wines, this had not been racked since July): Bright, dark red. Inviting scents of black raspberry and currant. Boasts lovely richness, breadth and sweetness, with its flavors tending toward black fruits owing to the concentration from tiny yields. Dense, structured and long, finishing with a ripe suggestion of chocolate.
The 2016 Nuits Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Chaignots has wonderful purity on the nose, a serious step up from the village cru this year—bright red cherry and bergamot scents pouring from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, bright red cherry and wild strawberry fruit and impressive tension. This is like a coiled spring. Matured in two year oak, it manages to attain a sensuality that is already very engaging. Very fine. Dec 2017, www.robertparker.com
