Medium red. Hints of violet and spice on the reticent nose. Suave on entry, then rather tight in the middle and not yet expressing itself. This was easier to taste from barrel a year ago and will need a year or two to reveal its personality.

(15% new oak) Good deep red. Pure aromas of blackberry, licorice, bitter chocolate and vanilla. Dense but fine, with lovely lift to the dark berry and licorice flavors. Broad, supple and rather feminine in style; almost premier cru quality in its suavity. From small grapes and a well-drained site in Brochon. (By the way, Bachelet's 2007 Bourgogne rouge should be strong too.)
