Tasting notes
Really lively and fresh on the nose – especially for a 2008. But it's already quite diffuse. And just a bit chunky. Livelier than the Maltroie. (JR)

Leesy aromas of truffle and charred oak, with fruit in the background. Fat, broad and sweet but much less expressive today than the Chenevottes. Finishes with a tactile impression of minerality. This needs a couple years.
Solid and dense. Very well balanced with freshness and dense fruit. Though it’s very tense for the moment. Bravo! (JR)
Musky stone fruits, smoke and truffle on the nose, along with a sulfidey complexity. A step up in richness and volume from the Chenevottes, with more complex soil tones and a tactile mouth feel. Offers a nice combination of sweetness and lemony lift and finishes with noteworthy energy.
