Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. There is some under-ripeness here on Leroux’s Nuits St Georges Aux Thorey, which juts out from the brambly red berry fruit nose. It is nicely defined but herbaceous and leaner than expected. The palate is medium-bodied with a spicy/saline entry. I find a little heat on the mid-palate that rather disturbs the harmony on the finish. Perplexing.
