The 2014 Nuits St Georges 1er Cru Les Petits Plets, matured in 40% new oak, has a more complex bouquet compared to the Clos de l'Arlot this year, black earthy fruit mixed with mineral and slightly ferrous scents. It seems quite mercurial in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent red fruit on the entry, and a citric line of acidity that binds everything in towards the long and tender finish. There is a sense of class and sophistication about this Petits Plets.
