Tasting notes
The 2013 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Boudots is a beautiful young wine, offering up aromas of red plums, cassis, smoked duck, exotic spices and dried rose petals. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, fleshy but youthfully reserved, with fine-grained tannins, racy acids and a deep, tightly coiled core. While this is sufficiently structurally refined to be approachable now, the real fireworks will come with another decade of bottle age.

Very full and fleshy. Really gorgeous direct fruit. So pure and unmediated. Almost grape juice but with subtlety. Very fine tannins. (JR)
