(Potel Nicolas Nuits St.Georges) Medium, medium-plus cherry-red colour. The nose has high tones and a slightly jammy red fruit core. The palate is much more sedate than the wall of tannin that greeted me when I first tasted this on release. The palate has really good intensity that slowly fades. Good acidity and well mannered tannins. I just find that following the burst of fruit at the start and the good length I'd like a bit more in the middle, but it's nicely sweet and was heartily devoured.
