Scott@Mister A’s-San Diego
9.2

2024 vintage. Last tasted 3.18.26 (9.2). Picked up a case and pretty flirty/forward. Should show well for the next half-decade. 5.31.26. — a month ago

One of my early favorite producers first stepping into what would be a long, deep dive into Burgundy wines.

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. — a month ago

Gevrey-Chambertin Pinot Noir 2023

Scott@Mister A’s-San Diego
9.2

2023 vintage. Staff Burgundy tasting. Medium body. Slightly dirty and feral right off the bat. That quickly mellows out a bit, unfortunately, and smooths out. Lengthy finish. 2.17.26 — 4 months ago
