Tasting notes
The 2013 Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru Bousselots has a very crisp and refined bouquet with blackberry, briary and faint, damp earth scents that lend intrigue. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy ripe black fruit, quite structured on the entry but very tight and linear towards the finish at the moment. This felt a little closed down after bottling and needs another couple of years. It is a decent Bousselots from les frères Chevillon, but I suggest that it is not up there with Chevillon's raft of other premier crus.

Darkish crimson. Reserved on the nose. But smooth and opulent and fruity on the palate. Quite lively fruit on the finish and admirably persistent. Really substantial and full of pleasure. A standout. (JR)
Bright, full red. High-toned aromas of red fruits, mocha and earth, lifted by a floral note. A step up in vinosity and energy from the Chaignots, showing an attractive sugar/acid balance to its juicy purple fruit flavors. Finishes with sweet tannins and good length and floral lift.
