Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru "Les Grandes Vignes" 2006, Chateau de Puligny

This NSG is a crowd-pleaser for people who work in Canary Wharf or La Defense. Fruit-driven, black cherry, wild strawberries, black berries, luscious, obvious personality. Reminiscent of a well-endowed brunette secretary who wants to be friends with the boys. This is a very smooth wine, touches of bright acidity, round, fleshy and a decent kick of tannin. Designed for pleasure not sophistication.
