Tasted blind. Wonderful whole cluster nose here with cured meat, some animalic elements and sour cherry. Elegant but not diluted palate, bright acidity and clean red fruit. What can I say. George Noellat is a good producer and Les Boudots one of the best kept secrets in all of the Cote de Nuits.

Interesting that there's not many reviews of this wine. Slightly oaky when first opened but slowly integrated with air. Lots of spice on the nose and deep sniffing reveals crunchy red fruits. Very mineral and savory on the palate with earth and grass. Flavor profile is very Vosne but the structure and tannins are very Nuits. A very serious Boudots for a 2011 vintage.

MASTER BORGOGNA AIS; 10/15/2013-6/28/2014 (HOTEL WESTIN PALACE MILANO): Vigna al confine con Les Malconsorts 75% legno nuovo. 100% diraspato. Naso torrefatto, cremoso: boiserie e caffè zuccherato. Trionfo di aromi dolciastri e ruffiani. In bocca ha una voce graffiante e tanta stoffa, acidità veemente bilanciata dal finale di legno dolce che più adoro!

Floral and animalistic. Very fresh, elegant, long. I think this will shut down soon, then open up again in a few years.
