Classification Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru
Region Aux Boudots

At the critic's visit, the 2016 wines had not been racked and were very low in sulfur. Bottling is performed by hand using gravity feed, with no fining, filtration or sulfur addition at bottling.
Tasting Notes Burghound noted warm earth, poached plum, mocha and cassis, richness, muscular structure, austerity and persistence. Vinous noted cassis, black cherry, blackberry, dark chocolate, violet and saline minerality, with a dense, floral and very long finish.
Critics Ratings 94 points Burghound; 94 points Vinous
2015 Technical Specifications
Drinking Window 2027+
Classification Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru
Region Aux Boudots
Production Details At Burghound's February barrel tasting, the wines had not been racked or sulfured and many were reduced. The producer said the 2015 wines required long élevage; the page also advises decanting Lucien Le Moine wines because of noticeable retained CO2.
Tasting Notes Burghound described reduction, substantial concentration, punch and power, subtle mineral character, and a balanced, firm, attractively textured finish.
Critics Ratings 91–94 points Burghound
