Louis Jadot Les Vaucrains Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru 2017

Vaucrains isn’t far behind the better known Les St-Georges in the line up of Nuits-St-Georges’ best premiers crus, as this serious, sappy, firmly textured wine demonstrates. It’s earthy, ferrous and layered, with plum and vanilla spice and a fresh, tangy finish. Drinking window: 2024-2030. Score – 93. (Tim Atkin, MW, decanter.com, Nov. 4, 2018)
