Tasting Notes

Vinous Neal Martin - 17 Jan 24
The 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Pruliers 1er Cru is well-defined on the nose with black cherries and bilberry fruit. It reveals more red fruit with aeration with hints of orange rind and blood orange. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly jagged tannins on the entry, lending a more powdery texture and grip. The finish has good density with a very subtle pinch of white pepper on the aftertaste. Very fine.

Nuits-Saint-Georges

Nuits-Saint-Georges, a renowned appellation in Burgundy's Côte de Nuits, is famous for its robust, structured Pinot Noir wines with rich flavours of dark cherries, blackberries, and plums, along with earthy, spicy notes. Known for firm tannins and full-bodied character, these wines are ideal for ageing. Although lacking Grand Cru vineyards, Premier Cru sites like Les Saint-Georges and Les Vaucrains produce exceptional wines. Top producers include Domaine Henri Gouges, Domaine Faiveley, and Domaine Robert Chevillon, all celebrated for showcasing the unique terroir with traditional winemaking.
