Jean Chauvenet Nuits St Georges 1er Cru Vaucrains 2020 (OCC/6)
Tasting Note
'There is a touch of mocha lurking in the background of the notably ripe aromas of cassis, poached plum, anise and plenty of earth and sauvage elements. The broad-shouldered and decidedly muscular flavors are surprisingly supple on the palate drenching mid-palate that contrasts materially with the firm tannins on the decidedly compact and youthfully austere finish. This is a big wine and absolutely structured to reward 15 plus years of aging, indeed it's very much a "buy and forget you own it" Vaucrains. I would add that this is an atypical example of the terroir as it's very ripe yet somehow manages to remain balanced. '
