The 2013 Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru les Murgers, raised in 80% new oak like the Aux Thorey, has a more exotic bouquet than the Murgers, spicier, and there is a greater proportion of black fruit in evidence. The palate is medium-bodied, masculine and structured, reserved on the entry, with blackberry, raspberry and just a touch of licorice coming through on the finish that is more in sync with the new oak than the Aux Thorey. Give this gem three or four years in bottle.
