The 2023 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Vaucrains 1er Cru was showing a little reduction on the nose. It has a mixture of red and black fruit underneath, with hints of violet coming through with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with quite firm tannins and a touch of licorice toward the dense finish, with black pepper lingering on the aftertaste. Fine. NEAL MARTIN
(from a 1.08 ha mix of younger and older vines that average about 50+ years of age). Here too there is a whiff of menthol lurking in the background of the red and black cherry liqueur aromas that display additional hints of earth, kirsch and the sauvage. The exceptionally round and borderline soft medium-bodied flavors also possess a velvety mid-palate texture that contrasts with the firm but not especially rustic or austere finale. BURGHOUND
