Dark red cherry, plum and spices notes meld together in the 2012 Nuits-Saint-Georges Aux Saint-Juliens. A succulent, entry-level wine, the 2012 Aux Saint-Juliens boasts lovely depth married to energy. This is an especially dark, powerful village-level Burgundy, but the inclusion of 100% whole clusters adds gorgeous aromatic lift and finesse.
This is relatively elegant for a Nuits villages with its densely fruited nose of various red berries plus an abundance of floral and freshly turned earth scents. The succulent, rich and generously proportioned flavors possess a seductive mouth feel that continues onto the lingering finish that displays only a soupçon of rusticity. This excellent effort is worth checking out.
