Tasting Notes and Scores

The 2019 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Vaucrains 1er Cru is quite toasty on the nose—another from this enclave of the Côte d'Or that feels opulent and rather alcoholic. Crushed strawberries and redcurrant jam sit at the forefront, with a hint of marmalade in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe maraschino cherries and Kirsch, hints of blood orange and an almost citrus-fresh, persistent finish. On reflection, this pleases the senses, but just misses some personality and engagement. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.
