2010 Domaine Robert Arnoux / Arnoux-Lachaux Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Clos des Corvees Pagets France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru
Very enjoyable. Better than '09 on this night. More plush darker fruits but the acidity is there. Nice finish.

Red
2009 Lucien Le Moine Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Les Vaucrains France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru
Rustic. Deep fruit core. Juicy acidity but a nip of greenness.
Red
2010 Lucien Le Moine Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Les Vaucrains France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru
Could be a flawed bottle. Lot of debate in room. The acidity and fruit core is there. Needs time.

Flight 5 (2 notes)

Red
2009 Lucien Le Moine Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Les Cailles France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru
Terrific nose. Nose "of the night" possibility. Spicy, rustic fruit and a solid finish. Great showing for this '09.
Red
2010 Lucien Le Moine Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Les Cailles France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru
A touch of green, which I got in some of the other Le Moine '10s, but could evolve over time. The spice and acidity is there. Hard to evaluate today.

Red
2011 Alain Hudelot-Noëllat Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Les Murgers France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru
Fantastic nose. Great fruit and spice. Concentration and acidity are there. Terrific value at this price point. Should develop well over time.
Red
2010 Lucien Le Moine Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Les Saint Georges France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru
On the very young and tightly wound side right now. Hard to evaluate. Fruit core and concentration are there but very reticent now.
