Tasting Notes

Fractionally lighter in colour than the 2000 served alongside, but with similar maturity. Perhaps a little less depth of fruit too, but lively and refreshing with some fresh orange zest notes and a touch of grenadine suggesting that the wine had only just reached optimum ripeness. Some raspberry fruit too, and prominent acidity. This filled out well with time in the glass, becoming altogether more succulent, so still a year or two from maturity.

Score: 94

Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy 01 January 2018

Discreet wood frames the elegant floral hints that combine with earth, plum and cassis aromas. There is excellent purity to the pure, detailed and focused middle weight flavors that are still quite powerful and robust on the mineral-driven and impressively long finish that displays just a hint of acid tang. This is quite masculine in character and while it could certainly be approached now with pleasure I would suggest holding it for another 2 to 4 years first. Tasted thrice with consistent notes save for one bottle that display enough reduction to notice.
