David Duband, Nuits St Georges 1er Cru Les Pruliers 2016

"(this site was not frosted)Red cherry liqueur on the ripe nose, leavened by tart red berries and spices. Fat, plush and sweet; in a very supple style, with no shortage of concentration. In its impression of volume without weight, this wine makes a good transition between Duband's premier crus and grand crus. Finishes rich, sweet, ripely tannic and very long, with palate-saturating fruit and late floral lift." - Vinous

"A more deeply pitched and more reserved nose exhibits plenty of earth and game nuances on the liqueur-like dark currant aromas. The full-bodied, concentrated and powerful flavors coat the palate with dry extract that also cushions the even firmer tannins shaping the beautifully long if distinctly rustic finale." - Allen Meadows
