Les Boudots Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2011

9.4

2011 vintage. First time with this producer. Purchased an out of town bottle (along with a buncha BDX) approx two months ago and finally got around to driving 1.25 hours one way to pick up. Pressed immediately into service tonight. Sweet fill and good cork. Nose a bit musty. Not decanted as I was at home and too lazy for the hogsheads of real fire and whatnot. Light-medium body. Sultry notes of cinnamon, tangerine peel and slightly carmelized brown sugar betwixt drought earth and brackish water. Doesn't exactly sound like an Oscar for a memorable performance but this was firing. Lengthy finish. At the top of the bell curve and tastes like it'll remain as such for another 5-6 years. In that oh so sweet spot for dynamite, 1er Cru red Burg. At (only) roughly $170 a bottle (including shipping this time), purchasing four more bottles as we speak. I'd like to thank the Academy...er...the credit card. 12.10.24. — 9 days ago

1.25hrs is like 3miles on the 805. Did you even get past Clairemont 😂

@Norman Gennaro S’always about timing in life. Gotta know when and when not to be on the freeways.

@Norman Gennaro And yes, it’s relatively easy to get past Squaremont.

Ruby red color with aromas of ripe fruits with floral and earthy tones. On the palate flavors of red berry fruits, licorice with pepper spice notes. Soft fine tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit and earthy spice character. — 6 days ago
