Sylvain Cathiard & Fils Nuits St George Aux Murgers 1er Cru 2022

There is enough reduction to render the nose difficult to evaluate though it does seem ripe. Otherwise, the restrained medium-weight flavours possess excellent structural ripeness as well as fine size, weight and power on the intense, harmonious and mouth-coating finish. This concentrated effort is a classic Murgers of muscle and power but no rusticity.
