Kasia Sobiesiak - The Wine Front
Love the composition here, it has fine but sandy tannin, raw meat, mint and pink peppercorn, along with hazelnut-biscuit oak. Tasty.

The 2021 Nuits Saint-Georges les Boudots 1er Cru is a little more closed than the Les Cailles, slightly earthier in style and opens with dark berry and subtle Earl Grey scents. The palate is medium-bodied with an edgy opening and fine acidity. There's a little fleshiness here with a savory, tobacco-tinged finish. Fine, though the Les Cailles has a little more panache.

Jasper Morris - Inside Burgundy
From Fleurieres, Herbues and Aux St Jacques, bright crimson purple, and not too ripe in fruit profile, this has an excellent structure with just the right tannins and correct acidity. All in deep red fruit, not too plummy, a balanced and consistent overall Nuits-St-Georges.
Neal Martin - Vinous
The 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges Village has a well-defined bouquet with pretty red cherries and crushed strawberry fruit, with subtle sous-bois in the background. The medium-bodied palate has slightly dry tannins and good weight on the mid-palate, with a soft landing on the finish. Fine, approachable.
