Occasional wine note

Another brilliant classic red Burgundy from a Côte de Beaune Grand Cru vineyard. Layers of ripe red and blue fruits, baking spices, with hints of earthy flavors and aromas. Fantastic now, but likely a lot better a decade from now.

What experts say about this wine

James Suckling

Dried strawberries with dried flowers and crushed stones on the nose. So enticing and fascinating. Full-bodied with a compact, tight palate of ripe yet cool and fine fruit. Complex finish of dried spice, such as nutmeg, together with fruit and light earth. A beauty already. Better after 2023.

Wine Spectator

Seductive aromas of rose, blueberry and boysenberry highlight this well-defined, incisive red. It has latent power and builds to a long, expansive, mineral-tinged finish. Fine purity and structure. Best from 2024 through 2043.
