Note di degustazione
The 2021 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Saint-Georges 1er Cru sports a little reduction on the nose, mainly red fruit tinged with soy and a little spice box emerging with time. Something here just reminds me of a fine Pinot from Hemel-en-Aarde. The palate is supple and rounded in texture, leaning a little into Vosne-like red fruit with a lovely creaminess that seduces on the finish. Clever use of oak and whole bunch here lends this texture and restraint, yet never leaves you feeling shortchanged. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

The 2021 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Saint-Georges 1er Cru comes from both Faiveley's and contracted fruit that Erwan Faiveley holds in high regard. It has a very impressive, detailed bouquet with brambly red fruit, briary, hints of rosemary and bay. The mineralité develops with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly grainy tannins, nice sapidity here with an elegant and focused finish that is very promising.
The 2021 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Saint-Georges reveals aromas of smoky berries, cherries and rich soil tones, followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy palate that's seamless and suave, framed by melting tannins. It's part domaine, part négoce.
