The 2019 Maison Louis Jadot Nuits St Georges 1er Cru Les Saint Georges is a Pinot Noir hailing from the esteemed Burgundy region in France, specifically the Cote de Nuits sub-region under the Nuits St Georges appellation. Produced by Louis Jadot, this red wine is sealed with a traditional cork closure.

Professional reviews generally praise this vintage, with Robert Parker's Wine Advocate awarding it an impressive 94 points. The review by Robert Parker's Wine Advocate describes the wine as having "notes of plums, orange rind, warm spices, and sweet berry fruit." They further elaborate that it is "medium to full-bodied, rich, and fleshy," and highlight its "gourmand core of fruit and ripe structuring tannins." The reviewer suggests that it is quite demonstrative and dramatic this year and predicts that it "will show well straight out of the gates." This high praise indicates that the wine is expected to be enjoyable immediately, an important consideration for those looking to drink it in the near term.

Vinous, another reputable wine publication, also provided a favorable review, giving it a score of 92 points. According to Vinous, the 2019 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Saint-Georges 1er Cru is "precocious on the nose," with notable aromas of "bold macerated small cherries mingling with raspberry jam and elderberry." The palate is described as focusing heavily on texture, being "velvety smooth and very plush." However, Vinous notes that "at the moment the oak completely covers the terroir expression," and expresses a desire for "more complexity and tension on the finish." This suggests that while the wine is currently enjoyable, it might benefit from some aging to allow the terroir to fully express itself and for more complexity to develop.

In summary, the 2019 Maison Louis Jadot Nuits St Georges 1er Cru Les Saint Georges is a well-regarded Pinot Noir with rich, fleshy characteristics and a smooth, plush texture. While it is ready to drink now, some reviewers suggest that additional aging could enhance its complexity and terroir expression.
