Tasting notes
The 2009 Nuits St. Georges Les Damodes is stellar. It boasts gorgeous depth and concentration in its dark fruit, flowers, menthol, graphite and minerals, all of which flow effortlessly to the long, creamy finish. The Damodes is voluptuous and plush yet very nicely balanced. It certainly seems to have a very bright future. This is a rock star wine from Vincent Lecheneaut. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2029. Importer: Robert Kacher Selections, New York City; tel. (212) 239-1275

Medium red. Lovely lift to the aromas of raspberry, strawberry and gingerbread. Tighter on the palate than the Pruliers, but with excellent energy and structure to the red berry, pepper and spice flavors. Here the dusty tannins show a youthful dry edge that will require at least a few years of cellaring.
