Tasting notes
The 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Saint-Georges is also showing brilliantly, mingling aromas of dark berry fruit, plums and cherries with nuances of baking chocolate, rich soil tones and subtle carnal nuances. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, rich and muscular, with real concentration and substance. This is a lively, sapid, broad-shouldered Les Saint-Georges that will be very long lived.

The 2018 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Saint-Georges 1er Cru comes from a single half-hectare of vines. The beautifully defined, very precise bouquet gathers momentum with aeration, strangely reminding me of Clos des Ducs in the Côtes de Beaune; it is just magnificent. The medium-bodied palate offers filigreed tannin, perfectly pitched acidity, just the right amount of sapidity to get the saliva flowing and almost clinical definition on the persistent finish. It is everything you want in a Les Saint-Georges, brushing off the warmth of the 2018 growing season with style.
