Tasting Notes

Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Jan 13
Deep red with ruby tones. Black cherry and licorice on the nose. Generous, sweet and dense, offering excellent freshness and chewy depth. Finishes broad, sweet and long, with noteworthy finesse of tannins. A very promising vintage for this wine. Arnoux's parcel is contiguous to the Grands-Echezeaux of Domaine de la Romanee-Conti, notes Lachaux.
