2023 Nuits St Georges Les Pruliers

The 2023 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Pruliers 1er Cru has an airy, well-defined, perfumed bouquet with blackberry, boysenberry and violet aromas. It is quite Vosne-like in style. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe tannins, slightly tarry black fruit that exerts fine grip and a hint of cracked black pepper toward the finish. It's not quite as finessed as the 2021, but I appreciate the density here.
