Domaine Jean Grivot - Nuits-Saint-Georges 'Charmois' - 2019

A subtle application of wood sets off the cooler and more restrained if less spicy nose of red and black currant and newly turned earth. The succulent but punchy middle weight flavors also possess very good delineation before terminating in a dusty, stony and moderately austere finale. This too is a fine Nuits villages that is sufficiently firm to suggest that at least a decade of bottle age will be necessary to resolve the tannic spine. 89-91 Points, Outstanding Allen Meadows, Burghound
