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

Score: 91+ | March 14, 2016 | Vinous/Antonio Galloni

Good medium red. Cool, medicinal black cherry, blueberry and violet on the nose. Concentrated, ripe and sappy, showing excellent texture and intense spice character for the vintage. Finishes juicy and long, with some very ripe chocolate tones and big, tactile tannins that avoid dryness. This will need patience. —Stephen Tanzer

Deep, bright red. Vibrant cherry and mocha aromas are lifted by a floral quality. Rich, sweet and deep, with strong dark fruit flavors framed by harmonious acidity and accented by a peppery quality. Broad yet weightless wine with strong underlying mineral character. Most of the pHs of these 2013s are in the range of 3.65 but this one is more like 3.5, according to Vincent. Finishes sappy and long, with terrific lift.
