Tasting notes
The 2018 Nuits Saint-Georges Au Bas de Combe Village has a pretty dark cherry, briar and undergrowth bouquet, well-defined and nicely focused. The palate is medium-bodied and quite saline with good acidity. A discreet meatiness comes through toward the finish and a dash of five-spice appears on the aftertaste. This is a fascinating Nuits Saint-George.

The 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges Au Bas de Combe reveals a perfumed bouquet of raspberries, rose petals, orange rind and potpourri, complemented by rich soil tones and a deft framing of oak. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, supple and fleshy, with an open-knit core of ripe but succulent fruit. This is an especially elegant Nuits, concluding a lovely triumvirate of communal bottlings chez Hudelot-Noellat this year.
