Note di degustazione
(partly from purchased grapes and the rest from a 60-year-old massale selection in both Charmes and Mazoyères--the same Magnien selection as the Lavaux Saint-Jacques; 100% destemmed; aging in 60% new oak and 40% once-used barrels): Dark red. Ripe, slightly high-toned aromas of almost liqueur-like dark fruit salad. Juicy on entry, then dense, sappy and dry, displaying lovely definition and cut. Very firm but with an element of perfume that makes it approachable now. Finishes complex and long, with supple tannins. Technical directly Jérôme Flous says that this is the closest in style among our wines to Rousseau's. There's certainly an element of softness to it.

Cask sample. Mid crimson. Sweetly red-fruited, very pretty. Super-smooth and velvety already. Deep and fresh at the same time. More length than concentration but this should make old bones. (JH)
