(BH89-91 points) A softly spicy and wonderfully fresh dark berry fruit suffused nose is liberally laced with earth and floral nuances. There is excellent intensity to the relatively precise and lightly stony flavors that also possess good richness and volume that continues onto the balanced finish. This is a fine Nuits villages and worth a look.

(WA89-91 points) The 2014 Nuits St Georges 1er Cru les Charmoix offers a pleasant raspberry coulis and strawberry nose, with just a touch of marmalade in the background lending some exoticism. The palate is smooth and silky, supple, almost nubile in the mouth with rounded tannin, good density though just needing a little more nervosité to come through towards the finish, though that seems to develop in the glass. Good potential here. - Neal Martin
