Maison Nicolas Potel has built its international reputation by making wines from the most beautiful vineyards of the Burgundy region. Their appellation Villages, Premiers Crus and Grand Crus are recommended all over the world due to their purity of style, their authentic appellations and native lands.  They adhere to sustainable viticulture, sourcing some fruit from 35+ year old vineyards, grapes from biodynamic and organic vineyards when possible, and from long-time grower partners. Traditional winemaking, with very little intervention during the winemaking process, fermentation with only natural yeasts, limited use of oak / partial malolactic fermentation.

Les Vaucrains is one of the most highly regarded Premier Cru vineyards in the Nuits-Saint-Georges appellation. The climat sits on the hill above the Les Saint-Georges Premier Cru site which – in the absence of any Grand Cru vineyards – is considered one of the best, if not the best, in the appellation.
