1998 Thomas-Moillard, Nuits St.Georges 1er Clos de Thorey
Medium-plus colour. Deep, dark, macerated fruit aromas, perhaps a little roasted with some coffee but slightly alcoholic notes too. There’s plenty of background tannin, but given the Moillard extraction techniques coupled to the early presentation of the vintage tannins, this is much better than I hoped. The fruit is quite sweet and like the nose slightly roast. Overall this is not bad – indeed it was an easy, if not particularly transparent, drink.
Rebuy – Maybe

    Hi Bill,

    I have a bottle of this, picked up on a visit there many years ago. When would you say it needs drinking?

    Many thanks!

    Peter

      Hi Peter,
      Whilst drinkable now, there is never any rush with a T-M wine 😉
      Best!
