Outstanding for the level and price. From a single plot by Meursault. Really fruit-forward and ripe but with the requisite acidity and freshness to balance it out. Super easy to drink now, with its charming fruit profile and generous and giving nature. A touch floral as well, though that might just be a bit of the new wine smell.

An outstanding entry level red here -- the vintage just works so well at the lower levels. Crunchy red fruit that is flamboyant and easygoing, bordering on candied, but restrained by the bright acidity here. A very light touch, this is a really fleshy and exuberant young pinot that really ought to be cellared for a year or two.

A very bright and generous chardonnay that doesn't show any of that modernist reduction at all. This is perhaps a little wider-bodied than I prefer (and definitely broader than the Chenevottes, which I liked more), with the ripe 2015 profile showing clearly. The palate here has a touch more sweetness than I'd like as well, but fortunately, this is all deftly carried by the acidity.

My favourite of the two 2015 Chassagnes -- this was much more suited to my palate. The story of the day is very dense minerality, as well as a fruit profile that seems a little more subdued or clamped down. I love the intense mineral extract here. It feels like it sticks to your palate. The ripeness of the vintage does show through in a little bit of butterscotch on the nose.

Severely reduced on the nose, this reminded me a lot of Leflaive's 2004s as well. I'm not sure if we could have saved this with a penny or with more air or something else. It's a bit of a shame, as there's clearly some really lovely material on the palate, but I couldn't get past the sulphurous stink of the reduction on this.

To be sure, this is ridiculously young, but it's actually fairly approachable and delicious already. There's a slight bit of reduction on the nose here, but nothing close to the level of that 2004. A really powerful wine, driven mostly by its fruit, but there's counterbalancing acidity and minerality here. Not the crispest example of chardonnay, this is a wine that will age on its extract and scale rather than the acidity.

Despite the elegant red fruit and acidity here, there's a coarseness on the palate that gives this a really classic Beaune feeling. Or maybe that's just me imagining that. Bright and easygoing, not unlike the AOC Bourgogne, but with much more depth and seriousness on the palate. Totally clean, with no discernible reductive or funky notes (unlike the Taillepieds).

While the palate of this was quite nice, the nose here I found a little stinky with barnyardy reduction. There are also some light spice tones on the nose as well. Despite a generous helping of fruit, this didn't feel as expressive as some of the other red wines tonight. This was tightly coiled, with the fruit veering a bit more towards the darker side of the spectrum. Likely one of the wines to benefit the most from some age.

This wasn't the easiest wine to assess, but it wasn't totally clamped down either. This seems to be the ripest of the wines tonight, but that ripeness is carried really nicely by a nice vein of acidity. The tannins here are a bit coarser than the other wines. Although being more red- than black-fruited, this is a very structured wine that will need a fair bit of time to reveal everything.

This was the most easy-going and open wine of the reds tonight (surprising it came from NSG, right?). Roaring from the get-go with lots of dense black fruit and power. This has the most earthiness and shows a bit of that Nuits stereotype, but there's a really nice dichotomy of the lightness of the fruit and the power of the earth. Fairly tannic, but not overly so.
