Tasting notes
Produced from vines ranging from 20 to 45 years old, this wine is a splendid Nuits. Its deep cherry scents are intertwined with cookie dough aromas. Its character explodes on the palate with sumptuously ripe cherries, raspberries, and traces of minerals. This expressive, medium-to-full-bodied, and gorgeously pure wine has loads of supple tannins in its long and persistent finish. Projected maturity: 2001-2007+. Importer: Seagram Chateau & Estate Wines Company, New York, NY; tel (212) 572-7725 throughout the US, except for CA + HI (Chambers & Chambers), CA (Old Vine Imports), NJ & NY (Jeroboam Imports), TX (Le Serbet), MA (Classic Wine Imports), and NY (Burgundy Wine Company).
