Tasting notes
The 2014 Nuits St Georges 1er Cru les Boudots has a candied, quite feminine bouquet with lush red cherries and crushed strawberry scents interlaced with minerals. The palate is fleshy on the entry with supple tannin, well judged acidity, well integrated oak and quite a structured finish. Perhaps it needs just a little more nuance, but that should develop with time. Good potential here.

Lightish cherry red. And much more red-fruited than the Vaucrains, more aromatic. Juicy, lively and almost more Beaune than Nuits but lots of fresh pleasure. Mouth-watering freshness on the finish. Light and balanced. (JH)
