Tasting Notes

A very fresh and high-toned nose of raspberry, cranberry and earth that can't begin to match the aromatic breadth of the Bèze leads to cool, reserved and tight middle weight flavors that do possess ample amounts of minerality on the balanced but oddly, seemingly somewhat simple finish compared to the very best in the range. To be sure, this is not a simple wine but it's not nearly as complex as one would reasonably expect from one of Burgundy's best.
