RATINGS

94-96The Wine Advocate

The finest, silkiest of tannins frame the fruit through to the supple, inviting finish. Veins of minerality give the Pruliers its focus and balance.

92-94Burghound.com

The complex and velvety medium weight flavors possess fine phenolic ripeness though there is so much dry extract that the structural elements are presently relegated to the background... In a word, terrific.

90-93Stephen Tanzer

Densely packed & tightly wound; less expressive today than the Roncieres but thick, sappy & pure, with violet and licorice notes perking up the dark fruit flavors. The long but youthfully bound-up finish leaves a note of bitter chocolate.

REGION

France, Burgundy, Côte d'Or, Côte de Nuits-Villages, Nuits-St.-Georges, Les Pruliers

Les Pruliers is a 17.7-acre Premier Cru vineyard in Nuits-Saints-Georges, in Burgundy’s Cote de Nuits. It is in the central part of of the appellation. Because there are no Grand Cru vineyards in Nuits-Saints-Georges, the appellation’s considerable reputation rests on its excellent Premier Crus. At an elevation of 250-270 meters, the vineyard has an ideal elevation, and the soil contains large amounts of stone, gravel and limestone.

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir, 1er (Premier) Cru

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
