Tasting Notes

This is easily the ripest wine among the Côte de Beaune members of this range with aromas of plum, blackberry liqueur, warm earth and violets. There is superb density and imposing size, weight and volume to the powerful and palate staining flavors that are supported by very firm but buried tannins and massive length. This is not an especially elegant rendition but there is no question it is dramatic and packed with aging potential.
