2010 Nuits-St-Georges 1er 'Les Pruliers', Domaine Taupenot-Merme

Receiving 91-93 points from Antonio Galloni in the Wine Advocate, Les Pruliers is an intensely expressive wine. The fruit on the palate, whilst being predominantly red, seems surprisingly rich and brooding. The wine again surprises with a delightfully juicy finish. With firm tannins, this wine has the structure to age very well – it will only continue to improve.

2010 Nuits-St-Georges 1er 'Les Pruliers', Domaine Taupenot-Merme
Domaine Taupenot-Merme

In the words of Neal Martin in The Wine Advocate, this is “a domaine that has improved immensely in recent vintages, armed with an impressive array of holdings and fashioning classic, restrained Chardonnay and Pinot Noirs.” We don’t disagree. Eponymous winemaker Romain Taupenot is a delight to taste with, candid and engaging, and his wines are equally delightful. They’re a lesson in the reasons why sensitive handling of great vineyards leads to equally great wines.
