Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 31 Jan 23
Aromas of blueberries, baked plums, sweet soil tones and vine smoke introduce the 2020 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Pruliers, a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered wine that's unusually seamless and elegant, with vibrant acids and sweet, powdery tannins that mark it out as a high point of the range.

Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Dec 21
The 2020 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Pruliers 1er Cru has a gorgeous, pure dark cherry and violet-scented bouquet, very Vosne-like and seductive. The palate is well balanced with tart red fruit, orange sorbet and a touch of strawberry pastille, just a delicious Les Pruliers with a fleshy sensual finish. 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.
