Nuits St Georges Aux Boudots Meo-Camuzet 2020 (750ML)

92-94 Points, William Kelley, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "Aromas of cherries and ripe berries mingling with hints of spiced plums, burning embers and forest floor introduce the 2020 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Aux Boudots, a medium to full-bodied, deep and velvety wine that's layered and concentrated, with beautifully refined tannins and a long, sapid finish." 01/22

93-95 Points, Neal Martin, Vinous: "The 2020 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Boudots 1er Cru has a very expressive bouquet with ebullient red and blue fruit combined with violet and crushed stone scents. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannins, nicely poised with quite a strict finish that indicates that this will need some bottle age." 11/21

91-93 Points, Allen Meadows, Burghound: "A decidedly spicier and attractively layered nose reflects notes of ripe black cherry, anise, sandalwood and hints of exotic Asian-style tea. The velvety medium-bodied flavors also possess good muscle and punch on the delicious, lingering and balanced finish that is also relatively robust though not quite so much as the Murgers." 01/22

93+ Points, John Gilman, View from the Cellar: "The 2020 les Boudots from Jean-Nicolas Méo is a beautifully ripe and flashy wine on the nose, recalling just a bit the 1989 version in its youth. The bouquet jumps from the glass in an expressive array of black cherries, black plums, dark chocolate, gamebird, a very complex base of soil tones, violets and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is more reserved than the nose might suggest, with a full-bodied and rock solid format, coupled to lovely soil nuances, ripe, fine-grained tannins and a long, complex and tangy finish. I love the balance and purity here. 2033-2080+." 11/21

91-94 Points, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy: "Dark purple black, full of energy, almost too much, the fruit is pretty ripe as well, some black cherry notes, balanced on the palate, some coffee to finish. Wouldn’t want it to be any riper. Always a lower acid site. 13.3% but the aromatics show that it needed to be picked." 12/21
