    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    A different profile from the Porrets St Georges, the Pruliers is a gripping, racy, elongated Nuits - offering perfumed, crisp and crunchy red fruit flavours with a hint of sweet plum and damson. The tannins are evident and fortifying, but it is the freshness of fruit and energy that defines this wine and prolongs the finish, which echoes with floral cherry and vanilla pod notes. A brilliant Pruliers. A parcel of 50-year-old vines close to Clos des Porrets that, like its neighbour, also produces classic mineral Nuits but with a touch more roundness to it. The soils are similar although in Pruliers the stone elements are a little more broken down.

    Neal Martin,
    Vinous
    The 2019 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Pruliers 1er Cru was a little more reduced than Gouges’s other cuvées, opening gradually to reveal blackberry, wild hedgerow and incense. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, lithe and silky in the mouth, and fleshy with a judicious touch of white pepper toward the finish. The shortfall in grip and substance is sufficiently compensated with elegance.
