Les Hauts Pruliers Nuits St. Georges Pinot Noir 2024

Scott@Mister A’s-San Diego
9.3

2024 vintage. Last tasted 3.18.26 (9.3). Medium/medium-heavy body. Black cherry cola straddling forest floor. Pleasantly astringent. Nice, back-end, palate push. $46 a btl resto cost is, frankly, insulting and woulda picked up 3-4 cases two months ago but long on red Burgs. Short, however, on ridiculously, QPR-driven NSG’s that list for less than two bills (since that bird flew the coop 3 years ago). Verdict: need another case-or two. 5.24.26. — 13 hours ago

@Pinotman /// Andreas 2024 Burgundies I’ve tasted so far highly variable. Will be buying precious few that I haven’t personally tasted.
