Tasting notes
Color : A deep ruby colour.
Nose : The bouquet opens on generous, juicy fruit, revealing aromas of black berries, spice and liquorice. Its mineral character is further enhanced by distinctive notes of charcoal and pencil shavings. A poised and sophisticated aromatic profile that captures the essence of the vintage with precision.
Palate : The palate is fleshy and generous, supported by ample substance and impressive breadth. Gamay expresses itself through juicy fruit, lifted by subtle peppery nuances. The tannic structure coats the palate with a sense of refinement and nobility. Long and persistent on the finish, the wine retains remarkable freshness and drinkability. It can be cellared for a further five years with confidence.
Service temperature : 15°C / 59°F

Stuart Pigott: "Great ripeness and concentration for the vintage, also a dense, precisely contoured tannin structure. The smoky minerality expands and expands. Situated in the middle to the top of the south-facing side of the mountain. Beautifully integrated acidity. Really needs some time to give its best."
