Tasting Notes

91-93
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Jan 17
(100% vendange entier; 255 new oak; from vines on heavier soil averaging 50 years of age): Bright red. Complex aromas of cherry, raspberry, smoke and earth lifted by a mineral topnote. Youthfully tight and classically dry, showing alluring inner-mouth floral lift to its red fruit flavors. Not a fleshy or sweet style but concentrated and deep. Finishes long and perfumed, with serious but ripe tannins. A very impressive Beaune wine in the making.
