The 2018 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Chaignots 1er Cru, like the 2019, has the most expressive bouquet of fruité, crushed strawberry, morello cherries and cranberry; rose petal and light briny aromas emerge with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, and quite fleshy and generous, leading to a supple, vivid finish. Yet again, a sublime Les Chaignots. (Neal Martin, Vinous, December 2020)

Dec 22nd, 2020After just returning from a week at La Paulee & tasting so many great 20’s they are very impressive maybe a touch more with the whites. This had ample red fruits almost rich & sappy but not overripe showing a strong mineral core with beautiful spice. The best vintage of this wine I have tried.
