Tasting notes
The 2015 Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru Les Cailles cocked a snook at the Les Saint Georges: much more generous and terroir-driven by comparison with wet limestone scents, rose petals and orange zest infusing the red cherry fruit. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity, nicely focused and full of energy, almost Vosne Les Suchots in style towards what feels like a precocious yet balanced finish. This would be my pick of the NSG's from Louis Jadot this vintage.

About the producer
Louis Jadot is arguably the most consistent négociant house in Burgundy. It has managed to straddle both the entry-level and fine wine market, while retaining respect in both.
