A marginally riper and even earthier array of dark currant floral and sauvage hints leads to delicious, intense, velvety and sappy medium weight flavors that are shaped by a moderately firm tannic spine on the slightly more complex finish. This too should amply reward mid-term cellaring and is highly recommended for its level. Drink: 2026+
The 2014 Nuits St Georges Aux Allots has a slight reduction on the nose, but underneath lie some fine, clean and pure black cherry and wild strawberry fruit. There is plenty of energy and animation here, an almost sorbet-like freshness, slightly candied towards the bright and lucid finish. Among Lalou Bize-Leroy's village cru, this might actually be my pick.
