Tasting notes
An assortment of candied cherries explode from the glass of the 2002 Nuits-St.-Georges Les Perrieres. This seductive wine’s character is drenched in black cherry syrup, rocks, and earth. Medium-bodied, it has outstanding depth, concentration, and a long, expressive finish that reveals copious quantities of ripe tannin. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2018.

Bright medium red. Sappy raspberry nose shows good precision and lift. Juicy and precise in the mouth, with redcurrant, raspberry and mineral flavors nicely framed by ripe acidity. Finishes firmly tannic and subtly persistent, with no impression of dryness.
More subtle than Chaignots. Thick and sweet. Very slightly furry on the palate, but certainly big impact. (JR)
