Tasting notes
Cask sample. Again this smells very ripe. Damsons and black fruit. And that same nutty aroma as on the�Chambolle La Combe d'Orveau. Deep, ripe, chewy but not, for me, classic burgundy. A delicious wine with very little typicality. Still surprisingly fresh.

The 2019 Nuits Saint-Georges Aux Boudots 1er Cru is gentler on the nose compared to the Pruliers, scents of wild strawberry, raspberry, crushed limestone and light ferrous aromas unfolding from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with quite a sweet entry. This has a lot of sucrosity and energy. Powerful and vivacious toward the saline finish, which reveals touches of boysenberry and black cherries and lingers for 45 seconds. Superb.
