Tasting notes
Good medium red, not as deep as the Beaux-Bruns. Then considerably sexier and more interesting on the nose, offering a musky quality to the aromas of raspberry, flowers and smoky minerality. Much finer-grained than the Beaux-Bruns but not giving up much in the middle palate; savory and intense but uncompromising in the early going. Still, this communicates Chambolle-typical flowers and mint on the back end, finishing with firm tannins and sneaky length and lift.

Light to mid crimson. A little smoky but cherry fruited too. Spicy and rounded on the palate. Dry textured but fine tannins, a bit on the lean side but still nicely scented on the palate. (JH)
