  Much better showing than my prior bottle, this doesn't seem to be overwhelmed with oak, at all. Eucalyptus, dried herbs and ripe red cherry on the nose, palate has sweet red berries, softer profile, fully integrated, which makes me pretty sure these are about at peak now, as you can start to sense the fruit drying up a bit on this wine. Long finish, nice acidity, but at or near prime, to me

  Significantly better than a bottle tasted a few months ago, with notes of sous bois, sautéed mushrooms, red berries; very balanced and soft on the palate, with good depth and a pleasant finish.

  This is drinking very well. Seamless and mouth-filling with some background tannins.

  Oak is still prominent, but I can tell the wine is starting to gain some weight and silkiness on the palate, as the acid is all on the backside, keeping it bright and lively, yet the wine has some weight to it. The fruit, acid, tannins haven't quite integrated yet, but it's in a fun space now, very enjoyable, dark-fruited, long finish. I'll save half the bottle for tomorrow, when I expect it to really flesh out a bit more

  Aromatic and inviting nose which promised much but alas....Very soft fruit on the palate, subtle flavours but watery even. Lacks concentration you'd want and expect from a 1er Cru Nuits St George.
