The 2019 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Bousselots 1er Cru veers much more toward red fruit on the nose, hints of meat juice and garrigue emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, quite saline and cohesive, leading to an energetic, peppery finish that lingers. Another promising NSG from Chauvenet.

Planted 1984. Destemmed. Cold pre-ferment maceration. Up to 20% new oak. Barrel sample. Deep cherry red. Dark, spicy fruit, very Nuits in its fruit aroma. But there's a touch of floral perfume with air. Dry tannic finesse, quite serious but with juice at the core to make a balanced and fresh whole. Refined texture. (JH)
