2017 Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Aux Boudots Méo-Camuzet, Burgund (0,75l)

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2017 Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Aux Boudots, Méo-Camuzet

The 2017 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Boudots wafts from the glass with a classy bouquet of cassis, plums, cinnamon and dark chocolate. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, with velvety tannins, a deep core of sapid fruit and lovely structural tension, concluding with a long and youthfully firm finish. Fermented with some 12% stems, this is one of the longer-term prospects in the Méo cellar. - Dr. William Kelley, Jan. 2019

Allen Meadows' Burghound - 2017 Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Aux Boudots, Méo-Camuzet

An overtly floral and spice-infused nose reflects notes of various dark berries and earth. Once again there is a highly attractive texture to the medium-bodied flavors that don't yet possess the same complexity though there is even better persistence to the somewhat more structured finale. My sense is that this will add more depth with age and will eventually surpass the Murgers. - Allen Meadows, Jan. 2019

Vinous - 2017 Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru Aux Boudots, Méo-Camuzet

The 2017 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Boudots 1er Cru contains around 10% stems that are added into the vat (rather than the whole bunches entering the vessel). The attractive, well-defined bouquet features vibrant black cherries, blueberry and crushed stone aromas, all precise and focused. The palate is medium-bodied with a supple entry and plenty of red fruit laced with brown spices. Quite elegant and charming, just needing a little more grip to come through on the finish but otherwise very fine. - Neil Martin, Jan. 2019
