Notes:
The 2010 Nuits St. Georges Aux Boudots comes across as weighty and substantial, especially after the Roncieres. Black cherries, plums, graphite, menthol, flowers and deep, exotic spices meld together impressively in this totally striking wine. The Boudots boasts tremendous textural depth and intensity all the way through to the round, sensual finish. At times it comes across as very Vosne-like, hardly a surprise given that Boudots lies next to Malconsorts. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2035. Wine Advocate 92-94
There is a touch of reduction that doesn't really particularly interfere with the expressiveness of the lightly spiced nose of ripe red currant, plum, violets and ample earth influence. The earth can also be found on the caressing middle weight flavors that are blessed with an abundance of dry extract that imparts a seductive mouth feel and buffers the moderately tannic spine. This is actually quite succulent yet the finish is sufficiently firm to suggest that this will require 10 to 12 years of cellar time first. Burghound 92 Outstanding!
