Vin Nuits Saint georges 1er cru “Les Vaucrains” Domaine Chicotot

“Les Vaucrains”a sumptuous climat

Les Vaucrains is located on a bed of red clays with a rich, loamy, stony soil.
The name of this climat comes from two Burgundian dialect words describing its valley-like shape (Vau) forming a crack in the hillside (Crain).

Tasting

An intense dark wine of outstanding power, its aromatic range plays on wild berries (blackberries and sloes), developing muskier, woodier notes and a body that mellows with time.

It is the ideal accompaniment for full-flavoured meats; roast game – such as woodcock, hare, wild boar, venison, for example – or rich sauce dishes with mushrooms will match it perfectly, especially the somewhat older vintages.
