Tasting notes
Cold terroir – always harvested last. Lightly spiced elegant red fruit, finesse, sweetness on the mid palate. Silky, spicily savoury on the palate and finish. Very long even though it is also delicate. (JH)

Medium red. Pretty aromas of red cherry and rose petal. Supple and full for this cuvee-a bit less strict than usual-with a silky texture to the red fruit and floral flavors. Finishes with sweet tannins and enticing lingering perfume.
Fine, delineated, undemanding but very 'pleasant'. A bit more structure than the Gevrey-Chambertin. (JR)
