2219 vintage. Some notable dirtiness on the finish. Medium body. Well made. Not the end all be all for NSG but a proper/representative effort that I'd love to tackle in a decade. 8.21.24 — 8 months ago

Comes out earthy and a touch funky, which fades with time open, leaving behind pure brambly berry fruit. Delicate, with good concentration and length. — 3 years ago

I have been digging the Rhone wines I have had recently. Really good now. Has almost an earthy base before some nice ripe berry fruit starts showing. — 4 years ago

Grand cru quality. Way too young. I will love to see this in 15 years. Right now it’s really good Pinot but in a decade or two I bet it will be singing with complexity — 5 years ago

Classic elegant and complete. High on aromatics, rose petals and spice. Beautiful balance contained in a subtle but complete structure. Can’t get enough of this producer. — 6 years ago

A little cheesy on the nose, but in a good way. Potpourri. Good acid spine. Cleans up and brightens with a little air. Red fruits and spice develop. — 9 years ago

Not part of our little “Vosne-side of NSG” blind shootout, but it might as well have been. Opened earlier during dinner as a blind, I thought it looked very NSG. Why I had it there was mostly down to the elimination process in our blind options. Right on I was, but had it younger.

Very dark fruited on the nose, along with earthy, spicy notes and hints of dark chocolate and moss. The palate was quite pure and elegant, with grippy tannins and an earthy, lightly mineral (which didn’t seem to grow with air) finish. When drank side-by-side with the pair of 19’ NSG during dinner, it didn’t quite have the depth not intensity of the two. It certainly wasn’t as bombastic as the MG, nor had the obvious “goût de terrior” notes of the Grivot, but had a certain elegance I liked. — 9 months ago

This seemed tighter than the Vaucrains with an underlying elegance that needed some air to reveal dark cherry, raspberry, crushed rock, underbrush, dried herbs, spice & violets — 10 months ago

A bit of funk on the nose but past that you get a real bouquet of red fruit and dried flowers. Still fresh and drinking very young Needed a good 30mins in the glass to hit its stride. — 6 years ago
