The Nuits-Saint-Georges Aux Allots 2015 – just south of Aux Lavieres. More on my home turf here … and first and foremost more energy. This is made from very old vines – so have obviously coped well with the draught in the summer. This is – in my mind – a more feminine and refined wine – it offers a lovely energetic mid-palate fruit – quite some millerandage grapes adding a juicy pomegranate fruit to the wine. Love the vibrant and energetic mid-palate, the refinement and the delicate balance.
Very Good – (89 – 90p) – tasted from CASK on November 7th 2016
