The 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Cailles offers up aromas of cherries, plums, cassis, and smoked meats that are still quite youthfully fruit-driven at this early stage. Medium to full-bodied, velvety, and elegantly muscular, it's a rich but nicely balanced wine that's holding a lot in reserve.
Attractive aromas of raspberries and cherries mingling with nuances of blood orange, grilled squab and dark chocolate introduce the 2017 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Cailles, a wine that's showing substantially better than it did from barrel in December. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, showing good depth and dimension at the core, fine but chalky structuring tannins and good length on the finish.
The 2016 Nuits Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Cailles has quite a plush and outgoing bouquet with hints of liquorice and damson developing in the glass—just a touch of headiness here. The palate is medium bodied with succulent ripe black cherry and boysenberry jam notes.
The Nuits St Georges 1er Cru les Cailles comes from a single hectare of vine on deep soil with small stones and tends to mature late. Including 40% whole-bunch fruit, it has an appealing and exuberant bouquet with lifted dark cherries and blueberry aromas – somewhat “playful” perhaps. The palate is medium bodied with ripe tannins, quite concentrated, but maintaining respectable delineation on the linear finish. Fine.
