Note di degustazione
(from vines planted in 1986 and 1987): Medium red. Aromas of plum and smoke show a touch of reduction. Round and slightly sweet on entry, with its redcurrant and plum flavors showing a slightly leathery quality in a Beaune way. Tightens up on the back half, finishes with serious, slightly drying tannins that will require some patience. Incidentally, some of these vines were replanted in 2012 due to snow and frost in 2009, and will begin to go into the final blend with the 2017 Cent-Vignes.

Cask sample. More savoury and darker fruited than many of the Beaune reds I have tasted so far. Just a light vegetal/stem note adding freshness. Dry, powder-fine but present tannins, jacketing the fruit at the moment. Finishes it a bit lean and dry. (JH)
Dark red, bright. Deep aromas of raspberry, smoke and menthol shows a youthfully medicinal quality. Dense and backward, conveying the rich texture of the year but no easy sweetness. Dark cherry and licorice flavors are a bit brooding but not hard. Finishes with substantial tongue-dusting tannins that will require a few years of cellaring.
