The 2016 Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru Clos des Porrets Saint Georges, matured in 20% new oak, offers attractive dusky black berries on the nose mixed with cold black tea and bay leaf. Give it a couple of swirls and a lovely crushed rose petal note leaps from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, finely judged acidity, a little grainy in texture toward the finish. There are wonderful pure black and red fruits with a vein of blood orange on the finish. Though not as good as the 2015 maybe, this remains a fine contribution to the vintage.

The 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges Village is showing nicely, offering up
aromas of sweet berry fruit and plums mingled with hints of raw cocoa
and warm spices. Medium-bodied, fleshy and charming, with powdery
tannins, moderate depth at the core and ripe acids, it will drink well
young.
