The 2021 Nuits Saint-Georges Clos des Fôrets Saint Georges 1er Cru has a slight metallic reduction on the nose that takes considerable aeration to dislodge. Tart red fruit laced with allspice lies underneath, though it is tightly coiled. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannins, crunchier in texture than Liger-Belair's Clos des Grand Vignes, with redder fruit leaning into a more ferrous style. Quite peppery towards the finish, although it has less substance and is just a bit harder than some might like. Perhaps it will soften with time? Maybe in a dumb phase given its wonderful showing from barrel. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.
