Note di degustazione
Tasted blind at the annual "Burgfest" tasting in Beaune. The 2012 Nuits St Georges 1er Cru Les Pruliers from Domaine Jean Grivot has a more introverted bouquet with woodland scents, hints of morel mushrooms infusing the clean and pure mixture of red and black fruit. Like Jean Chauvenet's "NSG Perrières," there is sensible use of oak here. The palate is medium-bodied with fine balance, veering towards more red fruit in the mouth (redcurrant and raspberry) mixed with a splash of balsamic. I like the tension here, the elegance and purity. I reckon this will get better and better so I would afford it another couple of years in bottle.

Good bright red. Aromas of redcurrant, red cherry, flowers and smoke, plus a suggestion of lees. The palate offers a restrained sweetness to the red berry and spice flavors accented by peppery herbs. Deeper than the Roncieres, finishing with finer tannins, but less full than the top Vosne wines here in 2012.
This is also noticeably reduced. There is slightly more richness and mid-palate concentration to the ripe middle weight flavors that are a highly appealing combination of power, depth and balance. This should also repay mid-term cellaring yet be approachable after only a few years. Tasted: Jan 15, 2014. Drink: 2022+
