Vinous Tasting Note

The 2021 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Vaucrains 1er Cru has a light nose with brambly black fruit, loamy touches of damp undergrowth emerging with time and, after ten minutes, dried violet petals. The palate is medium-bodied with chalky tannins. Vibrant and tensile, though a little leaner towards the finish due to the vintage, this is fresh and sapid but perhaps more for earlier drinking. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.
