Glowing purple. The bouquet offers a very succulent rendition of ripe pinot fruit. Beautifully lifted, some spice and white pepper, a brambly fruit to finish. Excellent length. Sweetly ripe raspberry dominates the palate. Bitter chocolate. A wine which needs time. On the wilder side. Drink from 2035. Tasted: September 2022
A subtle but not invisible application of wood is present on the ripe but quite fresh aromas of poached plum, sandalwood and orange pekoe tea. The sleek, intense and very well-detailed medium-bodied flavors possess a gorgeous mouthfeel thanks to the fine grained tannins supporting the sneaky long finish. This is lovely and very well-balanced. Drink: 2030+
Note: from a .55 ha parcel in En Orveaux with vines planted in 1924 and 1979
