Nuits-Saint-Georges Pinot Noir

Very impressed with this. Contemporary, tilting sweet, with nice caressing edges. Big surprise. Oak treatment is subdued.

Eh

Tons of acid for an 05. Got more and more interesting as the night progressed.

Hard to out my thumb on, ripe yet underripe. Concentrated but light and precise. Tannin and acid. Oak. Though it may seem otherwise in the early, deceptive lives of these wines, the fruit prevails. Orange, rust, fruit.

Good fruit good acid. Ready to drink out of the bottle. Paired well with chicken and fish. Elegant weekday wine.

Solid. Not great.

All previous negative reviews were for ‘05 vintage. Guess the winemaker fixed the “problem” by 2012. $55 purchased in New Orleans to drink with our beef tenderloin, Holiday Dinner. Did not disappoint in fact, when I asked my wine guy for a solid burgundy for $50-60, he nailed it with this election. Very traditional and will purchase again. The acidity from ‘05 reviews not present here. Nice red fruit, but not overbearing. Second glass after a little air and chill was highlife if he evening.

Compelling for a village bottling and I can't wait to see how it comes around with more air.

Soft and supple hints of vanilla and even coconut on the nose. It's hits the palate easily and gently but shows layers of sweet fruit as it evolves. The heat is perfectly integrated. So French.
