Note di degustazione
(bottled in mid-October; completely destemmed): Bright medium red. Lively perfume of raspberry, blood orange and flowers. Very pretty, leanish wine with excellent intensity and definition to its flavors of red fruits and flowers. This delightful Bourgogne includes a lot of Beaune villages and premier cru fruit, as production in these vineyards was too tiny to merit separate bottlings. Leroux made 10,000 bottles of this wine, and it's one to seek out.

The 2016 Bourgogne Rouge was aged in wooden tank, bottled mid-October and includes a potpourri of vineyards from here, there and everywhere that had been frosted. This has a delightful bouquet with vivid red cherry and strawberry fruit that is well defined and probably more like a village cru. The palate is medium-bodied with fresh red berry fruit mixed with bay leaf and a touch of black tea. I was smitten by this modest generic red and I bet it will be good value for money.
Aged in foudres. Bottled October 2017. Some village Santenay in there. All the little cuvées that were badly frosted are in here so it may evolve. Very bright. Rather muted nose, but bright, fresh, candy fruit on the palate. Very fresh and fruity. A little severe on the end. (JR)
