NUITS SAINT GEORGES 1er Cru Les Saint Georges Domaine Thibault Liger-Belair 2017

The 2017 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Saint-Georges 1er Cru has a straightforward bouquet of red cherries plus a touch of balsamic, showing fine delineation and intensity. It opens and deepens nicely in the glass, though it requires time to absorb the new oak. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and fine acidity, and quite saline and stocky on the broad-shouldered, almost Morey-like finish. Though a tad brutish at the moment, this should improve in bottle. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting.

POMMARD 1er Cru Clos des Épeneaux Domaine Comte Armand 2017

The 2017 Pommard Clos des Epeneaux 1er Cru feels just a little flat on the nose; it’s clean but needs to convey more energy. The palate is fleshy with lower acidity than its peers – a Pommard that is "open for business." Sweet with candied orange peel and black pepper on the finish. Fine, but not long-term. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting.
