Tasting notes
Pretty nose of delicate red fruits, concentrated cranberry and rose hip. The palate is fresh and lively with a streak of nervy acidity and tons of red fruit flavour.Dec 2015

The 2014 Nuits St Georges Aux St Julien includes two-thirds whole cluster fruit and comes from vines planted on ferrous soils. The nose is very focused, aloof but delineated; this is a more masculine Nuits Saint Georges. The palate is firm in the mouth and there is a good backbone here, almost rigid, with the whole cluster fruit working well and lending freshness towards the finish. More Morey than Vosne; give it a couple of years in bottle.
