When is Boudot not Boudot? When it’s a blend of Cras and Richemone. I’ve been reliably informed that Richemone grapes went into the Boudot pre 2017. Not sure why the wine is labelled Boudot, but got to enjoy the quirks of Burgundy.
The wine is a delight. Pretty and elegant style of NSG as is often the way for domaine based in Vosne. I found the fruit a bit sweeter than the 12 Brûlées from the other week. Also a bit brighter and more lifted on the palate.
Very silky and integrated tannins. Refined. Cherry on the nose and palate. Great balance.
Another ‘winner’ from my perspective. And I have a growing appreciation for these wines from Gerard Mugneret.

Deep, dark garnet. Nose: fragrant and rather mineral - leather, forest floor, dried flowers, evolving into stewed red cherries. Palate: supple tannins, more forest floor. Medium acidity, medium finish. Beautiful balance. Not a delicate flower, this one - assertive and elegant.

Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru aux Boudots Dinner (Formento's - Chicago IL): Good nose, very ripe with touch of sweetness. Even more ripe on palate in a simple way that seemed almost carbonic. Quite possibly an off bottle, but I've never had this wine in this vintage before.

Cherry liqueur and cream on the nose. Smooth and silky on the palate with a long finish. Had with hogfish snapper scampi. Delicious

Still too young and need to age.
