69% whole bunches not yet racked. Very pretty bouquet albeit ripe. A big step up from Mots des Oiseaux capturing the quintessential elegance of the site along with

Wine Advocate: 90-92+ Points

The 2020 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Clos des Forêts St Georges opens in the glass with scents of cherries cassis and plums. Full-bodied rich and concentrated it's a broad shouldered muscular wine with a deep core of fruit and a notable payload of rich powdery tannins. This is a rather chunky blocky Clos des Forêts that is more impactful than elegant at this early stage.

Burghound: 89-91 Points

Here too the nose is sufficiently reduced that it's difficult to discern much other than the underlying fruit is ripe. More interesting are the fresh and energetic medium-bodied flavors that coat the palate with dry extract while the moderately firm and youthfully austere finish flashes a hint of bitter chocolate.
