Tasting Notes

WA92

Resin, mint, sage, and licorice overtones to the roasted game and deep, palate-staining fresh blackberry fruit of Liger-Belair's 2007 Nuits-St.-Georges Les St.-Georges seem to point in part toward its one-third proportion of stems and whole clusters. Here is a 2007 that hasn't just retained fresh fruit vivacity but displays textural richness and authoritative grip as well. A saline streak extends the finish and calls forth saliva and yearning for the next sip. I would bet on it for at least ten years of high-performance.

WS92

Round and immediately appealing for its wild berry, black currant, licorice and spice notes. There's nice lift from the bright acidity and a chewiness to the texture, with fine concentration. Best from 2012 through 2022.
