Note di degustazione
(completely destemmed): Bright, dark red. Red cherry and leather aromas are joined by strong menthol and pepper notes. Surprisingly silky and soft on entry, then rather closed in the middle, showing a captivating salinity to its sweet, chewy redcurrant fruit. Has the stuffing to buffer its serious building tannins but needs time.

(the crop level here was a relatively healthy 28 hectoliters per hectare as there was less hail; Rossignol rents 2.1 hectares of vines in Santenots and combined three very different parcels of vines to make this wine): Bright, dark red Lively aromas of black cherry, licorice, mocha and dark chocolate, plus a whiff of leather. Dense, sweet and chewy, showing impressive concentration to its black fruit and pepper flavors. Boasts the energy and serious tannic support for a graceful evolution in bottle. This wine is naturally powerful and does not need whole clusters, noted Rossignol, adding that this 2013 is "still in construction."
