Score 91/100 · Drink 2002-2010, Pierre Rovani, Oct 1999

The ruby-colored 1997 Nuits-St.-Georges aux Vignes Rondes displays sweet red cherry and violet-laden aromas. Medium-to-full-bodied and powerful, this tightly-wound, foursquare offering is filled with road tar, stone, and blackberry flavors. It is impressively structured, muscular, and intense. Anticipated maturity: 2002-2010+. Importers: Martine's Wines, Inc., San Rafael, CA; tel (415) 485-1800, and Paterno Imports, Chicago, IL; tel (847) 604-8900.

Good red-ruby. Expressive, complex nose combines cassis, black raspberry, leather, minerals and smoke. Sweet and silky, with sound acidity but a complete absence of rough edges. Very good length.
