Goedhuis, December 2011
Adjoining Vosne Romanée Malconsorts, this is an exceptional vineyard and possibly Nuits' finest 1erCru... A wine of extraordinary complexity with its strong ripe fruit flavours and great layers of subtle minerality, it exudes class and is a truly fine example of the vintage at its best

Burghound, January 2013, Score: 92
(from 70+ year old vines). There is a touch of reduction that doesn’t really particularly interfere with the expressiveness of the lightly spiced nose of ripe red currant, plum, violets and ample earth influence. The earth can also be found on the caressing middle weight flavors that are blessed with an abundance of dry extract that imparts a seductive mouth feel and buffers the moderately tannic spine. This is actually quite succulent yet the finish is sufficiently firm to suggest that this will require 10 to 12 years of cellar time first. Drink 2020+

Burghound, January 2012, Score: 90-93
(from 70+ year old vines). A lightly spiced nose of ripe red currant, plum, violets and ample earth influence where the latter continues onto the caressing middle weight flavors that are blessed with an abundance of dry extract that imparts a seductive mouth feel and buffers the very firm tannic spine. I like the precision and the finish is a lovely combination of power, refinement, persistence and excellent depth. 2022+
Region
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.
