2015 Bourgogne Hautes Cotes de Nuits

Here the expressive nose is slightly more elegant and a bit fresher as well with its relatively high-toned aromas of various red berries and floral elements. Consistent with the nose there is reasonably good refinement as well as a touch of minerality that adds lift to the punchy, clean and focused finale. This is pretty but it can’t quite match the complexity of the regular cuvée. Dec 2016, www.burghound.com
