2022 Nuits-Saint-Georges

Vininformation

92 point - James Suckling: "Iron in the soul with an earthy personality, this is an impressive village wine, even in the Nuits-Saint-Georges context. This has power, but is also fresh on the medium- to full-bodied palate and there’s no hint of heaviness, thanks to the fine tannins. Interesting interplay of roast-meat and bitter-chocolate character in the long finish. Drink or hold." 

90-92 point - Burghound: "Firm reduction. On the palate the old vines are apparent on the middleweight plus flavors as this is impressively concentrated and very rich yet with excellent intensity and detail, all wrapped in a rustic, serious, powerful and strikingly long finale. This is very Nuits and very old school in character so while it is indisputably excellent, it is also a wine to buy only if you expressly intend to cellar it." 

Druerne til Christophe Drag's Nuits-Saint-Georges kommer fra den nordlige del af Nuits-Saint-Georges, specielt fra Aux Allots og Aux St. Jacques. Vinen er karakteriseret af en tæt og dyb farve. Der er friskhed og intensitet i smagen af blommer og jordbær med blomsternoter. Med tiden vil frugtsmagen ændre sig mere i retning af syltede jordbær, lakrids og læder!
