Description

From a .6 ha parcel

A highly spiced and exuberantly fresh nose freely reveals its aromas of essence of red berries, sandalwood, clove, crushed fennel and exotic tea. There is a big step up in volume to the noticeably denser larger-scaled flavors that exhibit very good power and minerality on the balanced, moderately austere and impressively long finish. This is already displaying much better than average depth and this is also quite good.

Drink from 2033 onward

About this wine

Pinot Noir

Pinot Noir is probably the most frustrating, and at times infuriating, wine grape in the world. However when it is successful, it can produce some of the most sublime wines known to man. This thin-skinned grape which grows in small, tight bunches performs well on well-drained, deepish limestone based subsoils as are found on Burgundy's Côte d'Or. Pinot Noir is more susceptible than other varieties to over cropping - concentration and varietal character disappear rapidly if yields are excessive and yields as little as 25hl/ha are the norm for some climats of the Côte d`Or.
