The 2010 Bourgogne Hautes Cotes de Nuits is an attractive, fleshy wine with lovely depth in its dark red fruit. Spices and licorice add complexity and nuance. This is a pretty wine in its category. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2016. I tasted all of Bernard Gros’s 2010s from tank, where the wines were settling for the winter. As is his usual custom, Gros concentrated the wines 10-15%, and therefore did not feel the need to chaptalize any of his 2010s. He calls 2010 a good vintage for quality but not the wallet, as yields are down 30-40%. Importer: Atherton Imports, Menlo Park, CA; tel. (650) 328-6639
