The 2010 Nuits St. Georges Clos des Porrets Saint-Georges is the first wine in this lineup that shows the structure of the vintage. Freshly cut flowers, minerals, graphite and black cherries are woven into a textured fabric of notable class. I especially like its energy and drive. A precise, finely-chiseled finish rounds things out nicely.
Needs air to reveal the black cherry, violet, mineral and spice notes. Rich and tannic, yet balanced overall and long on the finish.
