Description
I have always been a big fan of this bottling, as the label licker bias and corresponding very fair pricing renders it an overachiever and then some. It is almost entirely comprised of the single lieu dit Bas de Combe, à la the Hudelot Noëllat and Mugneret Gibourg versions, that straddles the Nuits Saint Georges/Vosne Romanée border. It drinks just like one would imagine a crossover Vosne-ish Nuits wine would taste in deep florals and spice, with a kiss of Nuits wild. Again, for value hounds, this should be a no brainer.
“”Dense purple black, plenty of energy here but not much detail yet. Very powerful but also very poised and the finish is clean and well extended, ripe dark fruit, perfect acid balance, middleweight plus. Impeccable. Tasted: November 2021.” 91-94 Jasper Morris “Four Star” wine
