Description

"90-92/100 - Neal Martin, eRobertParker.com17/20 - Jancis Robinson MW"The Les Terres Blanches vineyard is located on the Cote d'Or slopes just outside Premeaux-Prissey village. The name is a reference to the white, limestone-rich soils here (terre blanchemeans 'white land' in French), which are particularly characteristic of the site. Les Terres Blanches sits just a short distance north of a large limestone quarry, in an area where the limestone sub-strata are particularly close to the surface." Wine Searcher"From Hospices de Nuits. Very discreet nose. Rather refined but not saying too much at the moment. Very refined though"Jancis Robinson MW"The 2012 Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru Les Terres Blanches (Hospices de Nuits) has a fragrant, perfumed bouquet with mineral-rich red berry fruit that is well defined. The palate is well balanced with crisp tannins, sappy red berry fruit with good substance and focus towards the elegant finish. Excellent."Neal Martin, eRobertParker.com"
