Burghound, January 2008, Score: 89-91
An extremely subtle and, at this juncture, relatively inexpressive nose of ripe black pinot fruit and violet notes that are in keeping with the supple flavors that are perhaps not quite as concentrated as one might prefer but this is undeniably classy and delivers fine finishing punch, energy and backend persistence. Solid if not profound. Drink: 2013+.Notes: from a huge 2.10 ha parcel.

Burghound, January 2009, Score: 91
An extremely subtle and, at this very early juncture, relatively inexpressive nose of ripe black pinot fruit and violet notes that are in keeping with the supple flavors that are perhaps not quite as concentrated as one might prefer but this is undeniably classy and delivers fine finishing punch, energy and backend persistence on the explosive finish. While not a big wine, it's refined, pure and altogether lovely. Drink: 2014+.Notes: from a huge 2.10 ha parcel.Comments: outstanding!

Nuits Saint Georges
The second largest town after Beaune, Nuits St. Georges is known for ample wines that have textured tannins and rich fruit. Unlike other famous Côte de Nuits villages, it has no Grand Crus but does have a handful of exceptional premier cru vineyards such as Clos de l'Arlot, Les Pruliers and AuxMurgers. Its wines can be occasionally rustic, and this sets them apart from many of the more northern appellations as well as from the neighbouring Côte de Beaune whose wines (apart from Pommard) tend to be less structured and more fruit forward. This is no doubt due to a slightly increased presence of clay especially on the Primeaux-Prissey area of the appellation. Notable producers include Domaine de l'Arlot, Jean Grivot and Meo-Camuzet.
