Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru “Les Damodes” Reviews

Score: 90-93 | January 26, 2017 | Vinous/Antonio Galloni

Good medium red. Pure but subdued aromas of currant, black cherry, smoky stone, licorice and violet. Intensely flavored and evolving slowly, combining a restrained sweetness and good salty minerality. Darker in its fruit character than the Clos de Thorey. The wine's strong, spicy, tannic finish calls for more élevage. -- Stephen Tanzer
