Vinous (89-91)
The 2021 Nuits Saint-Georges Clos des Thorey 1er Cru comes from two small parcels that are vinified separately. The nose is perfumed with wilted rose petals and peony filtering through the transparent red fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and crisp acidity. It's not complex, but there is balance and focus, plus an attractive peppery finish. An early-drinking delight.Inc. GSTSG$893.15 -

Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. This Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru Les Damodes 2011 has a ripe bouquet, even though there is a touch of reduction, the oak lending light chocolate scents toward the red fruit that appear to ebb away in the glass and flow back with more maritime aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with quite succulent and fleshy tannins. The oak is pronounced here and feels a little dominant on the finish, although there is good weight and a pleasant spicy aftertaste. Hopefully, that unresolved wood will assimilate over the next couple of years and it might then merit a higher score.Inc. GSTSG$961.82 -
(1x75cl) 2012Vinous (90-92+)
The 2012 Nuits St. Georges Les Damodes is plump, juicy and inviting on the palate, with lovely depth and resonance. This is another wine that comes across as raw and not fully formed. In this case, the malos aren't fully finished yet. Still, there appears to be plenty of mid-palate pliancy here to suggest the Damodes will develop nicely over the coming months and years.Inc. GSTSG$179.74 -
(1x75cl) 2013Vinous (91+)
Good medium red. Cool, medicinal black cherry, blueberry and violet on the nose. Concentrated, ripe and sappy, showing excellent texture and intense spice character for the vintage. Finishes juicy and long, with some very ripe chocolate tones and big, tactile tannins that avoid dryness. This will need patience.Inc. GSTSG$162.30 -
Vinous (90-92)
The 2019 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Damodes 1er Cru includes one-quarter whole bunch this year. It has a well-defined bouquet of more black than red fruit, plus touches of white pepper and crushed limestone. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, cohesive and silky-smooth. Again, a little more grip would be nice, although it has plenty of charm. Drink after 3–4 years in bottle.Inc. GSTSG$192.83 -
(6x75cl) 2020Vinous (91-93)
The 2020 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Damodes 1er Cru includes 50% whole bunch. This has a welcoming bouquet with raspberry and crushed strawberry fruit, hints of pressed rose petals and coniferous trees. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red berry fruit, fine grip, a little compact towards the finish, though it should flesh out in bottle. Quite poised and sustained.Inc. GSTSG$749.27 -

The 2021 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Damodes 1er Cru sports some reduction on the nose, although behind that lies attractive brambly red berry fruit and earthy, almost peaty scents tucked in behind it. Clearly, this will need a couple more years to unfurl. The palate offers plenty of crunchy red fruit, quite tart at first, though it feels tensile and mineral driven. There is some tapering towards the finish where it would benefit from more substance and grip but overall, a good effort in this vintage. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.Inc. GSTSG$865.90 -

The 2017 Pommard Les Petits Noizons is showing very well, unfurling in the glass with aromas of wild berries, smoked meats, rich soil tones, cinnamon and spices. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, delicate and fine-boned, its perfumed core of fruit framed by powdery tannins and ripe acids. This is an elegant, gently reductive Pommard that should offer a broad drinking window.Inc. GSTSG$680.68 -

Located at the St-Aubin end of the vineyard. Glowing lemon and lime in colour, there is more weight and more tension than the village Puligny, but I don’t find it a lot more interesting. Ripe grapefruit and lemon notes, middleweight. Tasted: November 2021Inc. GSTSG$1,296.45 -

The 2021 Puligny-Montrachet Village comes from three parcels. It has a touch more presence on the nose compared to other cuvées with candle wax and honeysuckle mixed with orange blossom, quite Chassagne in style. The palate is balanced with a rounded texture. It's pretty generous and, clearly, a wine that is going to be very approachable. It just misses Puligny DNA, though it's a delicious Chardonnay.Inc. GSTSG$726.38 -

I appreciate the dab of spice on the finish, but I would like more personality to come through in bottle.Inc. GSTSG$1,407.71 -
Tim Atkin MW (94)
Focused, bright and pretty, this is a savory, even saline, wine. There's an attractive leesiness on the nose followed by ample yellow fruits on the generous, juicy palate. Plums, sweet apples and cherries mesh on the long finish. I always find this wine delightful. 2022-28Inc. GSTSG$1,024.03 -
