The 2012 Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru Aux Murgers comes from 50 and 70-year old vines – just under half a hectare. It has a little more delineation on the nose than the Aux Thorey, perfumed and floral with distant scents of dried orange peel. The palate is medium-bodied with a succulent, candied entry. The acidity is nicely judged with blood orange infusing the red cherry fruit on the precocious finish. This is lip-smacking delicious.
