Tasting notes
Hints of eucalyptus and spicy oak on the nose; still a bit shocked by the March bottling. Sweeter and deeper on the palate than the CNV, with supple if youthfully medicinal raspberry and mint flavors. Finishes with serious tannins and a note of bitter chocolate.

25% new oak, 75 yr old vines. Very, very bright crimson, lots of character and depth and again lots of juice and purity. Purer than the Dugat-Py but the same intensity. Racy too! (JR)
Good red-ruby. Pure aromas of blackberry, griotte cherry and licorice. Dense, suave and silky but youthfully unforthcoming, offering hints of vibrant black fruits, chocolate and smoked meat. Much less open than the Cote de Nuits-Villages but boasts a lovely subtle sweetness and finishes with very good breadth and echoing length.
