Tasting notes
Good dark red. Aromas of roasted black cherry and licorice show a distinct element of surmaturité following the 2016s at this address, but quickly gained in energy and lift. Wonderfully sweet, spicy and concentrated for the vintage, with no shortage of acidity. A dark berry fruit bomb in the mouth, showing the creaminess of the vintage, but becomes more airy as it opens in the glass. Very long for village wine, finishing with ripe tannins saline mineral grip.

Smooth and fresh and hugely seductive. The most immediately alluring wine I ever remember from this domaine. (JR)
Healthy dark red. Inviting aromas of blackberry, licorice and mint. Concentrated, supple and sweet, conveying good thickness to its very primary flavors of crushed dark berries and licorice. Well-integrated acidity leavens the wine's impression of sucrosité and frames the fruit. Finishes with distinctly sweet tannins and excellent length. A very strong village wine in the making.
