Tasting Notes
-
Goedhuis, January 2019
A fruity nose redolent of sweet cranberries, punnets of raspberries, and touch of French oak, that just invites you to drink. The palate gives of a sensation of cool, elegance, with ripe, but not overly sweet dark cherries, hints of mocha from the oak, all carried by a lovely vibrant acidity and fine fine tannins. A wine of great energy that you can easily drink now but has the legs to last.

Jancis Robinson, January 2019,
Score: 16.5Riper and more intense on the nose than the Vieilles Vignes. Then more subtle on the palate, almost chalky in texture. Lovely restraint.

WK, January 2019,
Score: 90-93The 2017 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Chaignots is superb, bursting with expressive aromas of cherries, violets, bergamot and grilled squab. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, velvety and supple with a layered core that entirely cloaks its fine structuring tannins in succulent fruit. This is an elegant, open-knit Chaignots which will offer a broad drinking window.

Region
Nuits Saint Georges
The second largest town after Beaune, Nuits St. Georges is known for ample wines that have textured tannins and rich fruit. Unlike other famous Côte de Nuits villages, it has no Grand Crus but does have a handful of exceptional premier cru vineyards such as Clos de l'Arlot, Les Pruliers and AuxMurgers. Its wines can be occasionally rustic, and this sets them apart from many of the more northern appellations as well as from the neighbouring Côte de Beaune whose wines (apart from Pommard) tend to be less structured and more fruit forward. This is no doubt due to a slightly increased presence of clay especially on the Primeaux-Prissey area of the appellation. Notable producers include Domaine de l'Arlot, Jean Grivot and Meo-Camuzet.
