2017 Domaine Arnoux-Lachaux, Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru, Clos des Corvees Pagets 1x750ml

Vinous 92

The 2017 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Corvées Pagets 1er Cru is 100% whole bunches. It has a very intense bouquet of brambly red fruit, briar, wild heather and light crushed rock aromas; more tertiary scents (damp moss?) emerge with time. The medium-bodied palate features supple tannin and just a slight lactic tincture on the entry, layers of tart red fruit infused with minerals and even a cheeky hint of Turkish Delight on the finish. This feels very long and tender. [Neal Martin, 10/01/2019]
