Patrice Rion Nuits Saint-Georges Vieilles Vignes - 2022 (750ml)
90-93 Points, Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy:
"A blend of purchased fruit from Les Longecourts, and one third their own Plateaux vineyard. All destemmed. Deep crimson purple. The bouquet shows a firm yet full dark red fruit, fairly classical Nuits-St-Georges, fully ripe plums, a balanced tannic structure behind, with adequate acidity. The finish maintains very well. Tasted Oct 2023."
Winemaker's Notes:
Tasting notes
To the eye, the wine is purple with flashes of light.
Typical Nuits nose of small red fruits such as sour cherries and other pitted fruits. Eucalyptus notes add a certain freshness.
On the palate, the tannins are noticeable and the structure firm, but a crunchy fruitiness awakes the appetite. Medium in length.
Drinking tips
Its strength and energy mean this wine works well with stronger dishes such as rib steaks, lamb chops or meat dishes in sauce.
Serve at around 16C-17C. Will age well for 3-8 years
