ready-improve2016 Nuits-St Georges, Aux Murgers, 1er Cru, Domaine Sylvain Cathiard

The vines over 65 years in age here produce very small berries. More generous in 2016 than Aux Thorey, this is dense, with a sweet-prune aroma; but not cooked. Sébastien waits as long as he can to harvest here. It’s lovely: a summer compôte. Drink 2022-2030.
