Tasting notes
The 2020 Côte de Nuits-Villages Le Vaucrain (Domaine Louis Jadot) reveals aromas of sweet berries and cherries mingled with hints of orange rind and spices. Medium to full-bodied, nicely concentrated and seamless, it's built around powdery tannins and lively acids. Part of this large parcel has been ripped up and will be the site of rootstock trials as Jadot reflects upon their replanting choices for the future.

The 2020 Côte de Nuits Villages Vaucrain has an odd nose that feels slightly stemmy, even though this cuvée is completely de-stemmed. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, maybe just a little green around the edges on the finish.
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.
