Mouth-watering aromas of candied cherries and flowers burst from the glass of the engaging 2002 Nuits-St.-Georges Les Boudots. Plush, soft, sweet, fruit-driven, and rich, this velvety-textured, medium-bodied wine will ultimately merit a higher score if the trace of bitterness I detected in the finish disappears as it completes its elevage. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2012.
