Michel Gros Nuits-St-Georges 2017

Michel Gros’s Nuits-St-Georges is a blend of four parcels, all near the northern Nuits-St-Georges border with Vosne-Romanée. This location translates into a lovely expression of both towns: a splash of the violets and spice for which Vosne is so prized, but beneath that nose a classic meaty Nuits mouth.

Vinous: It has a perfumed bouquet of bilberry and wild strawberry infused with violets notes; a touch of kirsch develops with aeration. The harmonious palate is medium-bodied with sappy red berry fruit, nicely judged acidity and a pastille-like finish that lingers in the mouth.
