Domaine Jean Chauvenet Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Poulettes
Here too there is reduction though notably less of it and in this case it seems clear the fruit is notably ripe. There is a lovely mouth feel to the much more mineral-inflected if less powerful medium weight flavors that possess lovely mid-palate density before concluding in a velvety, long and utterly delicious finale. This should be approachable after 4 to 5 years though reward up to a decade of cellaring. - Allen Meadows - Burghound - 90-93 points
