Tasting notes
The dark cherry and Asian spice-scented, medium to dark ruby-colored 1999 Nuits-St.-Georges Boudots (domaine) is an outstanding, medium-bodied wine. Lush layers of candied raspberries, sweet cherries, and Asian spices can be found in its soft, velvety, pure, and juicy character, as well as in its long, satiny finish. Drink it over the next 8-9 years. Importer: Kobrand, Inc., New York, NY; tel. (212) 490-9300.

Another wine which improved somewhat from the November tasting. Intensely perfumed with plenty of Vosne-style spice and seductive yet powerful flavors all supported by bright acidity and excellent length. Very fine and impressively long. Allen Meadows, Burghound Apr01,2001
