  April 15, 2024 - Wow. One of the best examples of wine from Nuits-Saint-Georges I've had the pleasure to try. Domaine Jean Tardy works across five hectares of land for all their offerings and you can tell the refinement of their wines off of the first sip of one of their bottles. This 1er Cru from 'Les Boudots' was in such a magnificent place on the night - the type of bottle you never want to see the bottom of. The nose gave off hints of advancement as aromas of leather, herbs, tobacco and a light vegetal quality all came together. In contrast, though, the palate boasted so much life as the upfront had a sexy morello cherry note balanced out perfectly by sous bois. The mid-palate showed off Les Boudots' proximity to Vosne-Romanée as those lovely Vosne spices came into the mix, aided by the power of a meaty note as well. The tannins felt perfectly integrated across some good acidity, amplified by a lovely, silky herbaceous finish. I'm writing this three days after drinking the bottle, still thinking about the wine.
