St. Audette Nuit

Nicolas Jay

Nysa Dundee Hills Pinot Noir 2015

The 2015 is drinking better after some additional time in bottle. Since I recently opened some Meo-Camuzet Burgundies, I wanted to compare while they were fresh in my mind. This wine reminds me of a New World version of Meo’s village Nuit-St-George. It’s slightly riper in some ways, simpler in structure, and doesn’t have much of that Old World tangy/sour/mineral finish. Cost is sorta close (Meo a little more in most markets), so for me the Meo wins by a SLIGHT margin, but this is oh-so-close. The N-J will likely be preferred by most American palettes. — 5 years ago

Estate Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2014

This is the USC cuvee. They chose 2 parcels from the vineyard for USC's own wine..
the result is super impressive. Burgundian in balance with that dark fruit that is typical of Santa Rita. Could be mistaken for a premier cru Nuit St Georges

Domaine Hubert Lignier

Hospices de Nuits Les Didiers Nuits-St-Georges 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2008

Stunning and captivating Burgundy, from a tiny lieu dit in Nuit-Saint-Georges near the village proper. Perfect harmony with the structure and acidity of 2008 that should allow this to age effortlessly for many, many more years....like 15-20. The nose is simply off the charts! — 7 years ago

@Andreas Termin, Ph. D. Not sure what 08s you have had but I have had great luck the Lignier wines ando Grivot. Your comment is a pretty broad generalization. imo most 09s I have had have not been up to par if we are generalizing...

@Andreas Termin, Ph. D. Gotta agree with Tom. I think 09 is junky and 08 is where it's at.

Refugio Pinot Noir 2015

Kind of profound? I mean, this is kind of a cru nuit st George in disguise. Crazy good. Beats the 2014 by a stretch. — 8 years ago

Cuvée La Gerbotte Nuits St. Georges Chardonnay 2013

Cuz some nights just need some 'Burg and Attenborough to soften the blow of a bad basketball game... Young Chardonnay vine selection from An awesome Nuit St George producer. Still in a fully youthful phase, but showing finesse beneath a plush exterior. That vertebrae, tho — 8 years ago

Domaine Méo-Camuzet

Nuits-Saint-Georges Pinot Noir 2017

The 2017 Nuit-Saint-George village offering is sumptuous and rich, with strawberry liqueur, red and black cherry, balanced by white mushrooms, cola nut, and delicate acidity. Not at all dusty as with Tanzer’s 2016 tasting. This one might not need much time in bottle. Another lovely Meo. — 5 years ago

Told this was Carignan, a red grape typically, but not barely on skin so this a white wine. Really interesting, hard to place the taste, but nice. Medium body — 7 years ago

Nuits-Saint-Georges Pinot Noir

Very approachable Nuit St George, we love them as they are almost always are on the border of premier Cru to Grand Cru, devilishly seductive wines. This one is bit less powerful than many of the others. — 8 years ago

Domaine Henri Gouges

Clos des Porrets St. Georges Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2005

Real deal. Very youthful but still drinking quite well. Nose of black and red fruits, violets, fresh blackberries, woodsy notes, with just enough of that nuit St George savory note. On the palate, rich core of black wild berries and red cherries with more florality than you would spect from NSG. Opened up a ton over a couple of hours, but feels like it will turn spectacular in 5 years — 8 years ago

Les Lavières Nuits St. Georges Pinot Noir 2013

Picked this baby up Nuit-Saint-George while touring France with the in-laws. Father-in-law currently in the cath lab for an inferior STEMI, so decided to break this one out of the archives. Best of luck, Ralph! — 5 years ago

Beautiful nose with pronounced olive, rose and earth, thin on palate with little body, medium finish. Not typical nuit st. George, but Worked well with salmon dish. Lighter, maybe reconditioned? Love the vintage. — 7 years ago

Nuits St. Georges Pinot Noir 1993

Bought at auction a while ago, label fell off at some point, and I forgot the wine. True blind tasting. I think it is a 93 Noellat Nuit st. George. Did the trick. — 8 years ago

Domaine Méo-Camuzet

Clos Saint-Philibert Monopole Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits Chardonnay 2012

An impressive example of an often over looked appellation. In the glass, I wander from Chablis to Nuit St Georges Blanc and momentarily in Puligny. Not sure how or why and it doesn't really matter because this is a delicious wine. Not aggressive anything...just beauty and balance with a welcome inclusion of fruit and a touch of oak. — 8 years ago
