A fairly sustained colour, a powerful nose that hints at the reserve. In its youthful prime: wild summer fruits, sloe, blackberry; it evolves towards plant nuances: oak bark, animal nuances: venison. In the mouth, a robust structure, fullness dominated by liveliness and firmness. Austere in its youth, it requires a good ten years to calm down and confirm its fullness and race.

The 2017 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Vaucrains 1er Cru has a fresh, tertiary nose with perhaps just a touch of brettanomyces, though it opens nicely with aeration, a pleasant ferrous element coming through. The palate is medium-bodied, taut and fresh, with sappy red berry fruit, fine delineation and a prudent sprinkling of white pepper toward the finish. This is a well- crafted Nuits Saint-Georges with plenty of personality. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting.
