Les Chaignots Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2012

Not part of our little “Vosne-side of NSG” blind shootout, but it might as well have been. Opened earlier during dinner as a blind, I thought it looked very NSG. Why I had it there was mostly down to the elimination process in our blind options. Right on I was, but had it younger.

Very dark fruited on the nose, along with earthy, spicy notes and hints of dark chocolate and moss. The palate was quite pure and elegant, with grippy tannins and an earthy, lightly mineral (which didn’t seem to grow with air) finish. When drank side-by-side with the pair of 19’ NSG during dinner, it didn’t quite have the depth not intensity of the two. It certainly wasn’t as bombastic as the MG, nor had the obvious “goût de terrior” notes of the Grivot, but had a certain elegance I liked.

Château La Croix St. Georges

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2009

Vintage 2009 | This is a Pomerol with a certain strictness. We tasted it blind next to a left bank wine but the tasters did not recognize this as a right bank wine. It seems to be made for the long haul, with clear tannines even after 15 years. Good integrated wood with a light vanilla impression. — 11 days ago

Aux Boudots Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2014

Garnet with significant bricking. The nose is all savoury with umami, barbecue meat, and smoke. The palate is again dominated by savoury meatiness. Soy. Very elegant. Classic burgundy - bold and powerful flavours with ethereal weight. — a month ago

Alain Hudelot-Noellat

Les Murgers Nuits-St. Georges 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2014

No specific notes but a very elegant, spicy and floral burg done by one of the finest we know. Really good bottle and recommended. Might be a notch or two better with another 5 to 6 years of cellar time. — 3 months ago
