Tasting notes
Another high point of the négoce portfolio is the 2020 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Saint Georges (Maison Louis Jadot), a medium to full-bodied, velvety and concentrated wine evocative of wild berries, woodsmoke, orange rind and spices. Layered and vibrant, it's worth seeking out.

The 2020 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Saint-Georges 1er Cru felt rather smudged on the nose and the palate came across rather oaky, perhaps exaggerated by the vivacious Vaucrains that preceded it. I think I will judge this bottling as there is probably some reduction here.
About the producer
Louis Jadot is arguably the most consistent négociant house in Burgundy. It has managed to straddle both the entry-level and fine wine market, while retaining respect in both.
