Note di degustazione
Bright medium red. Attractive floral lift to the aromas of red berries, herbs and pepper. Juicy and spicy on entry, then a bit lean and dry in the middle, but with plenty of red fruit and spice flavors. Good energy here but the finish features dusty, slightly drying tannins and a suggestion of greenness.

Good bright, saturated red. Raspberry, cherry and crushed stone aromas show a liqueur-like quality as well as a minty high note. Silky, dense and sweet; fat and powerful for a wine from this vineyard, but boasts the fine grain of a grand cru. Finishes full, serious and very long, with substantial broad, dusty tannins.
Like the Pruliers this is very reserved, indeed it required plenty of swirling to coax the otherwise pretty, layered and remarkably complex nose of underbrush, earth, spice hints, floral nuances plus both red and blue pinot fruit. There is a distinctly earthy and entirely serious character to the refined flavors that are at once supple yet concentrated, all wrapped in balanced, overtly powerful and jaw-dropping persistent finish. Most impressive. Tasted: Jan 14, 2013. Drink: 2023+
