The 2020 Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits Les Dames Huguette derives from stonier soils that are richer in active calcium. It's a medium to full-bodied, chiseled and saline red evocative of cherries, cassis, rose petals and spices. If Aux Chaumes will be a charmer out of the gates, Les Dames Huguette will reward at least a few years' patience.

The 2020 Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Nuits Les Dames Huguette contains more limestone soils than the Aux Chaumes. It has a very different bouquet with a more expressive and detailed nose, whilst the palate is medium-bodied with fine boned tannins, quite saline with good density in the finish. I can see this ageing well.
