Product: 2012 Jean Chauvenet, Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru, Les Vaucrains
Merchant Review NR
This should surely be considered for Grand Cru status; the politics though are that there are just a handful of local owners in les Saint Georges, including the Hospices, but, at neighbouring Vaucrains, there are 22, and those owners are more dispersed throughout the region. Christophe has 42 ares that produce a fairly healthy 8 barrels. The wine itself is truly exceptional and the closest 1er Cru to 100 points for me. The 2011 offers brilliant, if unusual complexity of soft red fruits, strawberry sorbet with thyme and even a hint of ripe green olive. A real gourmet wine with huge peaks of fruit concentration alongside a powerful, sinewy body. Stunning. 2024 to 2036
