The 2007 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Vaucrains 1er Cru performs similarly to the previous bottle. I am unsure about the nose that feels rather fatigued (like a few 2007s have recently shown) whilst the palate is chewy and bright, but perhaps missing the glass one expects from this prestigious vineyard. The jury is still out on this one. Tasted from a bottle from my personal cellar.

Tasted blind at Flint Wines’ 2007/2012 Nuits Saint-Georges tasting in London. The 2007 Nuits Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Vaucrains from Henri Gouges has a mature, open bouquet that feels slightly oxidized. The palate is better with good weight in the mouth, chewy tannin and plenty of spice-tinged dark fruit. What it is missing is a sense of energy and brightness, a lack of tension on the finish that would have urged you back for another sip. I have tasted many superior bottles from this domaine and from this producer. Drink soon. Tasted November 2016.
Tasted blind. Lively dark ruby. Rather gamey and leathery. Solid but no sweet charm. (JR)
Firm light red with more blue than most 2007s. Intriguing nose with more layers than most. Leaf-mould aromas. Solid and finishes very dry indeed! Not ready. Lots of tannins on the finish. Wonder who made this? (JR)
