Some whole bunch vinification for the Damodes. Mid crimson purple with dark raspberry on the nose. There is a juicy quality and some finesse with a fine quite intense fresh strawberry on the palate and still a little structure at the finish which needs the wine to flesh out.
More evident wood frames ripe cool and airy aromas that are more from the dark side of the fruit spectrum. The sleek delicious and attractively vibrant flavors flash good minerality and tension both of which can be found on the balanced complex and solidly persistent finish. This is lovel
The 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Damodes 1er Cru is aged in 50% new oak and completely de-stemmed. This is pleasingly floral on the nose with wilted roses filtering through the raspberry and redcurrant fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and a keen line of acidity. This is very elegant in style with a composed and transparent finish. What a lovely Les Damodes from Faiveley. (Drink between 2026-2042)
The 2022 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Damodes is ample and perfumed wafting from the glass with aromas of plums orange zest potpourri and spices. Medium to full-bodied supple and seamless with a pure and vibrant core of fruit melting tannins and a saline finish it's immensely charming. Jérôme Flous and his team have produced another compelling range of 2022s and it's hardly surprising given the high level of vineyard management chez Faiveley or the skill and precision brought to bear in the winery and the cellar. As is often the case up and down the Côte d'Or the style is more delicate and sensual than was the case in 2020 and the wines seem set to offer broad drinking windows. Published: Jan 18 2024
