(91-93 points) The 2018 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Charmois comes from a cold terroir that confers an advantage in this kind of growing season. It has a very fragrant, well-defined bouquet of red cherries, crushed strawberry and orange pith. Not complex, but there is lovely purity here. The palate is medium-bodied with quite fine, sharp tannins. There is good tension and mineralité in this Les Charmois, and the saline finish gets the saliva flowing. Excellent. -- Neal Martin

Incisive aromas and flavors of wild cherry, raspberry, floral and spices are the highlights of this burly red. A spine of stiff tannins gives support as it unwinds on the strong, gripping and iron-tinged finish. Best from 2025 through 2045. – BS
