Domaine Taupenot-Merme Nuits Saint Georges Les Pruliers 2017

The 2017 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Pruliers needs a little coaxing from the glass but responds with dark cherry fruit, Seville orange marmalade and allspice aromas. It is certainly very well defined. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle grip on the entry, quite foursquare but focused, and the red berry fruit is tinged with orange peel and black pepper.

The finish is very persistent and quite voluminous. This is a classy Les Pruliers that should age with style.
