Color: deep, bright ruby. Nose: reveals intense aromas of black cherry, ripe raspberry, violet and sweet spices, accompanied by subtle notes of undergrowth and liquorice. Palate: seductive, with a broad structure, silky tannins and beautiful energy. The texture is dense yet elegant, supported by precise freshness that extends into a long, mineral and delicately smoky finish. Comment: a powerful yet refined wine, typical of this great Côte de Beaune terroir.
