Côte de Nuits Villages Le Vaucrain

Wine Advocate Нил Мартин в декабре 2014 года: "The 2013 Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru Les Vaucrains has a floral bouquet with dried violet petals infusing the blackberry and bilberry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied, soft and in the fleshy mouth with slightly lower acidity, rendering this easy-drinking in style. I would pick the Boudots in terms of complexity, although this will have approachability. Like last year, I sectioned off two morning sessions through to Taste the complete range of Louis Jadots Côte dOr wines. Thats over 100 wines and so I prefer not to rush spend my time старательно tasting and comparing each one in the presence of винодел Фредерик Барнье and then on the second morning accompanied by proprietor Пьер-Генри Gagey, fresh from a ten-day fasting in Germany and positively ограничивающих with positivity. With such a plethora of vineyards under their wing, both New and rented, both gentlemen have a birds-eye view of how Burgundy performed in the vintage. It was a vintage late due to the late to start the вегетационный цикл, Фредерик began. Especially the first half of the year что difficult. There was no spring! Between April and May, there was double the amount of average rainfall and a lack of significant sunshine that disturbed the vines. It was very challenging with a strong pressure of oïdium and mildew. Summer что better and it probably saved the vintage, except what happened at the end of July, with the big three hailstorms that devastated a large area around 1,500 hectares from Aloxe-Corton to Мерсо. It was just 20 minutes at 4 o'Clock in the afternoon. I was actually here in Beaune, в the tasting room with some clients, and I could see the hail mixed with rain outside. So I called the vineyard manager. He said it was just rain, so we went into the vineyards together and we could see the devastation. We had some Flood in the winery and damage to the roof. At the same time, we were lucky because it was a late cycle that gave the vines two months to recover. The weather just after the hail что dry and not too hot, so this helped the convalescence and the scars on the vine could heal. Август was very good and restarted the vines to build the leaves so that the quality of grapes что perfect, even in the hail-affected vineyards. Так, in a way we were lucky. It was actually more challenging than в 2014. Сентябрь что where the ripeness and maturity came so it was very important because at the beginning of that month some of the grapes were still green. There was still some rain so we had to be very patient to obtain a suitable level of ripeness, rather than what you would call a "perfect ripeness." At the end of сентябрь, we decided to pick the grapes not too late, starting with the whites on 25 сентября: 90% picked before the first weekend in October when it was raining a lot. This made a big difference to the quality. There are two винтажа: people who picked before and after that picked weekend when 50mm of rain changed the quality. We had to sort the grapes carefully. My fear was to have растительный notes that you can sometimes have in late винтажа, but during the брожения we could see nice colors, no aggression and no растительный notes, which you could never have predicted when you saw the weather first-hand during 2013. В Бургундии, we do not need fantastic weather to reach full maturity, it is more important to reach phenolic зрелости. The weather в 2012 был приятно during harvest, but that was not the case in 2013. Вокруг 90% of the white and reds had to be chaptalized. Some of the whites were picked at 12.2%, but that was the top погашения we had в 2013. The acidity что mainly malic acidity and it was important to keep some of this and I did not want the feeling of a low acidity of wine, so in some crus we decided to stop the malolactic early. The good surprise в 2013 is the purity of the fruit, especially when you compare to say 2004. It does not have the density of richness of 2012 but you do have that purity. Both 2012 2013 and were expensive in terms of production in order to protect the vineyard and we have the half normal yield so we are at the limit of farming. We know in Burgundy we need to suffer to make good wine, to have this freshness and balance. It is difficult to summarize the quality of Jadots wines when they are so numerous. Certainly, as I remarked in last years report, I feel that Фредерик Барнье has adroitly stepped into the large charismatic shoes of his predecessor Жак Lardière, and while not every label is a home run, the general quality is of admirable стандарт given the size and logistical complexity of their operation. In some ways, you can view Луи жадо в честь вступления as a barometer of how Burgundy performed as a whole, excelling in areas such as Жевре-Шамбертен, while others such as Nuits Saint Georges were more переменной. That is to be expected in a challenging such as season 2013. Certainly there are some outstanding wines that, as I have mentioned countless times, stand shoulder to shoulder with more bijou domaines that command much higher prices. However, compare them blind, and it is clear that the quality here can often match and occasionally surpass them.
