Very mild reduction diminishes only slightly the red and dark berry fruit aromas that are pungently earthy where this element continues onto the rich and impressively scaled flavors that possess a fleshy mouth feel, all wrapped in a long and mouth coating finish. This brooding and very serious effort will require 6 to 8 years to be at its best.
Ripe cherry and floral notes on the nose with hints of smoke and leather. A sumptuous and glossy palate bursting with red cherries and raspberries interwoven with notes of earth and tobacco, this wine displays real tension and poise. Well-structured with crisp acidity and a very long, pure finish. This is proper Burgundy.
