91 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "...two-thirds of the blend for the Nuits AC bottling come from vines on the Prémeaux side of the village, which were devastated by the frost, and one-third from the Vosne side, where the frost was virtually non-existent. Interestingly, despite the draconian yields on the Prémeaux side, the wine shows none of the structural coarseness of some badly-frosted wines, and this is another very, very strong and classy AC in the making. The bouquet offers up a superb blend of red plums, black cherries, venison, raw cocoa, excellent soil tones, a dollop of mustard seed and cedar. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and again, quite sappy at the core, with ripe, well-integrated tannins and a long, soil-driven and tangy finish. Classy juice. 2024-2060. (Mar/Apr 2018)"
A two-vineyard blend of Les Chaliots in central Nuits, situated just below Les Poirets, and Les Lavières on the Vosne side, just below Aux Murgers. Easily one of the best village Nuits on market...at any price.
