Côte-de-Nuits

Nuits-Saint-Georges

Nuits-Saint-Georges is the home of some stunnig reds in the Côte de Nuits.

Although it rests on the southern border of Vosne-Romanée home to a set of incredible Grand Cru vineyards, Nuits-Saint-Georges has no Grand Cru’s of its own. Many would argue that one or two of the Premier Cru vineyards are worthy of an upgrade.

It’s uncanny how many times I’ve had a village Nuits from a good producer with 10-15 years of bottle age and remarked on both the quality and beauty of the wine.

Nuits produces virtually 100% Pinot Noir. There are a couple of sneaky whites, literally, made in Nuits. Henri Gouges makes a Pinot ‘Gouges’, a Blanc mutation of Pinot Noir, and a couple of Chardonnay’s from Domaine de l’Arlot.

The wines of Nuits like any village varying significantly. The sites toward the south tend to be more masculine. The sites to the north closer to Vosne-Romanée tend to be more feminine. They can offer incredible complexity and vitality.

You can read more about it and hear from vignerons making wines in the region in the Wine Bites Mag Article “Getting Your Head Around Burgundy Part 7 – The Village of Nuits-Saint-Georges”

David Duband Nuits-Saint-Georges 2018

Pinot Noir | Nuits-Saint-Georges, France

‘(from La Charmotte, Aux Saints-Juliens and Les Plateaux). A pungent nose is comprised at present by notes of reduction and wood toast. Otherwise there is excellent volume and mid-palate density to the powerful and muscular medium-bodied flavors that deliver outstanding depth and persistence on the robust and rustic finale. This outstanding if quite serious villages level wine is very Nuits in basic character. Drink 2028+.’Burghound.com January 2020.

David Duband Nuits-Saint-Georges 2019

Pinot Noir | Nuits-Saint-Georges, France

"A relatively airy and cool nose freely offers up notes of various red berries, earth and a floral top note. The sleek and relatively refined middle weight flavors contrast somewhat with the youthfully austere and mildly rustic finale that exhibits slightly better depth and persistence on the more structured finale. This is quite a good Nuits villages and worth a look. ♥"Allen Meadows, Burghound

David Duband Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru ‘Les Proces’ 2019

Pinot Noir | Nuits-Saint-Georges, Burgundy

"Aromatically this too is markedly floral in character with its discreetly spiced nose of high-toned red currant, pomegranate and soft earth influence. There is both good vibrancy and detail to the round and seductively textured medium-bodied flavors that possess fine length on the balanced finish if not quite the same lovely complexity. This mildly austere effort should age well over the medium to even longer-term. Drink 2030+."Allen Meadows, Burghound

Domaine Henri Gouges Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru 'Les Pruliers' 2020
It hard to talk about Nuits-Saint-Georges without talking about Henri Gouges. For near a century the Domaine has quietly been working away to expand their holding and continually improve their wines."A more deeply pitched and brooding nose only grudgingly reveals its aromas of cassis plum liqueur and pungent earth where the latter is also found on the vibrant and well-detailed big-bodied and tautly muscular flavors that deliver excellent depth and persistence. This is not as dense as the bes

Domaine de l'Arlot Nuits-Saint-Georges '1er Cru Mont des Oiseaux' 2023
“The 2023 Nuits Saint-Georges Mont des Oiseaux ler Cru, matured in 35% new oak, has an elegant, quite mineral-driven bouquet that is vivacious and charming (like the 2022). The palate is silky smooth on the entry, very well balanced and unerringly pure, with a light yet energetic finish that has just the right amount of piquancy. This is an underrated cuvée from the Domaine that should not be overlooked.”Neal Martin, Vinous 91-93 Points

“The 2020 Nuits Saint-Georges Mont des Oiseaux 1er Cru offers dark cherries, hints of peppermint and spice on its quite extravagant nose. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy dark berry fruit, good volume here, fine acidity, hints of white pepper and sage furnishing the composed finish.”Neal Martin, Vinous 89-91 Points

Domaine Vincent Dureuil-Janthial Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru 'Clos des Argillières' 2022
A distinctly earthy and sauvage-inflected nose is comprised mostly of a variety of red berry fruit aromas. There is very good energy to the intensely mineral-driven middle weight plus flavors that possess a relatively sleek mouthfeel on the structured, serious and moderately austere finale. This is clearly built-to-age and is going to need at least moderate patience. Excellent. Drink 2032+Allen Meadows, Burghound 92 Points ♥ OutstandingThe 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges Clos des Argill

Domaine Henri Gouges Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru 'Les Perrière' Blanc 2022
A more complex nose features notes of citrus confit, green apple and a floral top note along with just enough wood to notice. There is excellent concentration to the sappy and very rich yet focused medium weight flavors that possess a plush mouthfeel, all wrapped in a chalky, youthfully austere and lightly stony finale where a touch of warmth slowly emerges. This well-made effort should repay 2 to 3 years of keeping. 2026+Allen Meadows, Burghound 89 PointsNote: from white pinot noir, w

Domaine Louis Boillot Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru 'les Prûliers' 2021
“The 2021 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Pruliers is even more elegant and suave than its 2020 counterpart. Offering up aromas of cassis and dark berries mingled with notions of spices, potpourri and raw cocoa, it's medium to full-bodied, pure and perfumed, with a lively core of fruit framed by supple tannins.” William Kelley, The Wine Advocate 93 Points“A much more deeply pitched nose reflects aromas of plum, pungent earth, the sauvage and hints of forest floor character.

Domaine Louis Boillot Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru 'les Prûliers' 2022
“An overtly floral-suffused nose speaks of airy red berry scents that are liberally laced with a lovely range of spice elements as well as subtle earth and humus nuances. There is markedly better complexity to the medium-bodied flavors that possess excellent punch and this sense of vibrancy also can be found on the long and quite firm finish that is moderately austere but not really rustic, indeed I would go so far as to describe this as a Pruliers of relative refinement, which isn't something

Domaine Jean-Jacques Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er 'Chaboeufs' 2019
“Dense dark purple. Powerful plums, a graphite note as well, significant density, the fruit swells right across the palate, a huge volume but the ripeness is perfectly judged, with an excellent length. This is very impressive. Reveling in the warmer vintage because the tannins are riper.” Jasper Morris

Domaine Louis Boillot Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru 'les Prûliers' 2019
Boillot has always done a remarkable job with this vineyard and 2016 will only add to that track record. There is gorgeous complexity to the fresh and notably ripe red berry fruit, humus and pungent earth scented nose. The succulent, dense and powerful broad-shouldered flavors brim with copious dry extract that mostly manages to buffer the very firm tannic spine on the superbly long finish that flashes just a trace of Nuits style rusticity. This very serious and built-to-age effort is breathtaki
