Note di degustazione
The 2016 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Pruliers 1er Cru evinces a more modern style on the nose with pure and opulent black cherries, fig and sloes. It comes across as a bit of a crowd pleaser but it is undeniably attractive. The palate is well balanced with supple tannin and well judged acidity. There is plenty of extraction here and a carapace of quality new oak, but it seems to work well. It should become a noble Nuits Saint-Georges with a few years in bottle. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting. (DIAM 30 closure)

(just five barrels produced vs. a normal nine, as there were substantial crop losses on the Premeaux side of the vineyard): Deep ruby-red. Lively aromas of black cherry, dark raspberry, minerals, licorice and mint. Dense, sappy and sweet, with a complicating saline element to the concentrated flavors of blueberry, licorice, menthol and dark chocolate. Finishes tactile and long, with palate-dusting tannins.
The 2016 Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru Les Pruliers has a generous bouquet that wants to make up for the depletion in quantity: punnets of strawberries, raspberry preserve, cold stone and crushed flowers. The palate is nicely structured and I agree with Romain Taupenot that is has a Morey-Saint-Denis-like structure. I love the sustain on the finish here and the purity of this Les Pruliers. Not quite up there with the fabulous 2015 Les Prulier...but hey, not far off.
