Tasting notes
The 2023 Nuits Saint-Georges Château-Gris 1er Cru comes from the 3.4-hectare monopole (the name comes from the slate roof of the château). Including 25% whole bunch, this is more floral on the nos with rose petals and peony infusing the red berry fruit. The palate is juicy and ripe on the entry. It is a little New World in style, which I do not mention pejoratively. The fruit is very pure but perhaps a little too sweet on the finish? That said, there is a sense of joie-de-vivre her and it conveys nascent energy

Mid purple, some characteristic Nuits-St-Georges plums on the nose, but with refinement. Fresh red fruit on the palate, a limestone lean-ness yet with good tension and persistence. Does not quite kick on as well as the Morey 1er Cru.
