Domaine Méo-Camuzet Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru 2021
Burgundy wine Aux Boudots
The 2005 Bourgogne (from parcels in Nuits-St.-Georges, Vosne-Romanee, and Marsannay) sports a lovely black cherry, iodine and cherry pitnose, comes onto the palate generously juicy with under tones of game and fresh blood, and finishes with real grip, if a touch of extraneous woodiness.

Description of the Domaine Méo-Camuzet
The 2005 Bourgogne (from parcels in Nuits-St.-Georges, Vosne-Romanee, and Marsannay) sports a lovely black cherry, iodine and cherry pitnose, comes onto the palate generously juicy with under tones of game and fresh blood, and finishes with real grip, if a touch of extraneous woodiness.
Aux Boudots is a Nuits-Saint-Georges premier cru on the commune’s northern edge, just south of Vosne-Romanée’s Malconsorts: it is the most "Vosne-like" of the Nuits premiers crus. Facing east-southeast at 250 to 285 metres, it lies on clay and fragmented limestone. The estate farms about 1 ha here, planted in the mid-1950s and the 1960s. The grapes are destemmed, cold-soaked for a few days, then fermented with native yeasts. The wine ages for 15 to 18 months in barrels, 30 to 60% of them new, and is bottled unfined and unfiltered.
The nose, more complex and brighter than the estate’s Aux Murgers, combines plum, spice, smoke and forest floor. The medium- to full-bodied palate is fleshy, complete and lively, with slightly chalky tannins and a saline touch. The finish is long. A balanced Boudots in the fresh, classic 2021 vintage, best given a few years.

Domaine Pillot F&l
Beaune 1er Cru
From a cool, challenging vintage, the 2024 shows an expressive nose of red and dark fruit, cherry and raspberry, with earthy, forest-floor notes

Domaine Comtes Lafon
Santenots Du Milieu
A very pungent nose speaks only of reduction and wood. Otherwise the succulent but more voluminous middle weight plus flavors exude a subtle minerality before concluding in solidly powerful
Domaine Arnaud Ente
Bourgogne
This Bourgogne Pinot Noir comes from the Magny lieu-dit, in the commune of Meursault. The vines are farmed with the same care as the estate’s great white cuvées, with naturally low yields
Domaine Niellon
Clos De La Maltroie
The racy, intense and notably finer middle weight flavors exude a subtle minerality on the beautifully textured finale that is both more persistent and more complex
Domaine Arnaud Ente
Bourgogne Blanc
The colour is pale gold. The nose unfolds in the glass with crisp orchard fruit, citrus zest, blanched almonds and bread dough, with a floral touch. The palate is full and generous, with an elegant texture and lively acidity
Domaine Sylvie Esmonin
Clos St Jacques
Pierre Vincent Girardin
Chassagne Clos St J
2024 was a cool vintage with small volumes in Burgundy, giving lighter, more easy-drinking reds. At just 12.5%, this red Chassagne should show bright red and black fruit, a palate between finesse and concentration
Domaine Comte De Vogüe
Musigny Grand Cru
Reserved at first, the nose opens with air on red fruit, cherry, mulberry, pomegranate and blood orange, with rose petals, wildflowers and a touch of smoke. The palate is dense and concentrated, both powerful and silky, with a fleshy core
