Tasting notes for the Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru "Les Vallerots" 2020 - Chantal Lescure

  • EYE: With its deep ruby hue, evoking elegance and concentration, the robe of this Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru "Les Vallerots" 2020 doesn't leave us indifferent. Purple reflections testify to the youthfulness of this promising vintage.
  • NOSE: The wine reveals a subtle aromatic expression. Fruity aromas of black cherry and raspberry intertwine delicately, complemented by spicier notes and a light woody touch, indicating well-controlled barrel aging.
  • MOUTH: A bold initial attack then gives way to a balanced tannic structure. Flavors of red fruits, such as currant and cherry, harmoniously combine with hints of vanilla and pepper. The persistent finish suggests great aging potential.

 

In short: The Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru "Les Vallerots" 2020 from the Domaine Chantal Lescure embodies the typicality and finesse of great Burgundy wines. Its cellar aging capacity is estimated at a good dozen years or so, allowing the aromas to further complexify over time. This exceptional premier cru finds perfect harmony with characterful dishes. For example, a roasted duck breast enhanced by a red berry sauce will beautifully highlight the wine's aromatic richness. If you have a sweet tooth, dark chocolate petits fours can also be a delightful pairing.

Fine wine from Nuits-Saint-Georges

 

The Domaine Chantal Lescure is one of the most recent wine estates in Burgundy, as it opened its doors in 1975, in the commune of Nuits-Saint-Georges (located to the north of Meursault). Despite its young age, the estate quickly became famous for the quality of its wines. The 18 hectares of vineyard managed by Chantal and her husband Xavier Machard de Gramont are nestled between the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune. There are 35 parcels and around 20 different appellations in the vineyard, such as Chambolle-Musigny and Volnay.

When Chantal died, in 1996, her two sons Aymeric and Thibault took the helm of the family estate. They immediately thought about the way they were doing things, to define whether the vinification and winegrowing methods were the right ones. As a result, the Machard de Gramont brothers decided in 1997 to try a more organic approach. Since September 2009, all the wines produced by the Domaine Chantal Lescure are now AB certified.

The soils of the vineyard are a blend of clay, silt, pebbles and limestone. Here, grape harvesting is done entirely by hand and the winemaking process is deliberately non-interventionist. This in turn ensures that the red and white wines made by the two brothers can transmit all the specificities of the incredible Nuits-Saint-Georges terroir, in a never ending quest for purity and authenticity.
