Score 95/100 · Drink 2018-2038, Neal Martin, Jul 2018

The 1988 Nuit Saint-Georges Les Murgers 1er Cru evinces the class of one of the appellation’s finest Premier Crus, this is a couple of steps ahead of the 1988 Les Boudots by direct comparison. It is initially more standoffish than the Boudots. The Les Murgers wants to get to know you first, before opening up, revealing a less charming bouquet yet more delineated and complex, rose petal and iris scents infusing the vibrant red fruit. However where this really delivers is on the palate. It is beautifully defined, framed by very fine tannins that are quite Vosne-like in style. Pure raspberry and crushed strawberry fruit intermingle and it is adorned with life-affirming tension from start to finish. With aeration it becomes more sapid without losing any cohesiveness, if anything gaining more precision. It is a magnificent Nuits Saint-Georges. Tasted at Taillevent restaurant in Paris.
