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.

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, France

"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

David Duband Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru ‘Aux Thorey’ 2019

Pinot Noir | Nuits-Saint-Georges, France

"A distinctly cool nose is also quite spicy with its array of red currant, cherry and plum. The nicely textured and relatively sophisticated medium weight flavors exude a subtle minerality on the balanced, focused and impressively persistent finish that, like the Clos Sorbé, has a bitter cherry pit character. This is pretty much textbook Aux Thorey. ♥" Allen Meadows, Burghound

Domaine Louis Boillot

1er Cru

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

Domaine de Montille Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru ‘Aux Thorey’ 2020

Pinot Noir | Nuits-Saint-Georges, Burgundy

"A more elegant, cooler and spicier nose reflects notes of the pretty essence of red currant, rose petal and a floral top note. The elegance continues on the palate of the nicely textured and quite punchy flavors that exude evident minerality on the sneaky long and moderately structured finish. As is usually the case, this is a Nuits 1er of refinement and even a certain finesse." Drink 2030+ Outstanding ♥ Allen Meadows, Burghound 91-93 Points

Liqueur like aromas of ripe dark currant are trimmed in hints of earth, pepper and crushed fennel. There is excellent volume and richness to the full-bodied and muscular flavors that exhibit impressive power on the complex, mildly rustic and persistent finale. This is very Nuits in style and patience will absolutely be necessary. Drink 2032+ Allen Meadows, Burghound 92 Points ♥ Outstanding

“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

“There is a lovely depth of color here, and the perfume is enticing with its boysenberry fruit and chalky minerality. The palate has a lovely depth of ripeness, precise and fine tannins and elegant, refreshing length. This is one of the prettiest Clos des Fôrets St-Georges I have ever tasted.”  Christine Canterbury MW, Tim Atkin MW Burgundy Special Report 94 Points “Dense red to crimson.

Domaine Jean-Jacques Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er ‘Boudots’ 2019

Pinot Noir | Nuits-Saint-Georges, France

“Mid purple, with a no more intense but slightly more refined bouquet. There is a delicious sweetness of deep raspberry fruit, stretches well across the middle, very pure, which shows the class of the vineyard without quite matching the character of the Confuron Chaboeufs” Jasper Morris

There is enough reduction to suppress the underlying fruit though there is by contrast very good freshness and tension to the sleek, detailed and tautly muscular flavors that also conclude in a decidedly austere, compact and mildly warm finish. This powerful and vaguely rustic effort will also require ample patience to arrive at its full maturity.. Drink: 2036+ Outstanding ♥ Allen Meadows, Burghound 91-93 NM 93-95
