Vin Nuits Saint georges 1er cru “Les Pruliers” Domaine Chicotot

“Pruliers”

Deep soils with a thin layer of clay, brown, sticky soil. Its name descends from Roman times; popular cherries trees of the variety prunus were grown here until the Middle Ages.

Tasting

Les Pruliers reveals very fruity notes combining prunes, red fruits (with blackberries and cherries often dominant), through to floral, smoky notes. This is a wine whose superb structure, powerful and sometimes a bit austere, makes it a good candidate for cellaring.

It is a perfect accompaniment for traditional wine-based dishes, such as eggs Meurette, beef bourguignon and coq au vin. It also goes well with fruity cheeses such as comté, but not with ripened or very fatty cheeses.
