Tasting Notes and Scores
(still in barrel and not yet racked; 20% new oak; 10% vendange entier ): Healthy dark red. The nose offers a complex amalgam of raspberry, redcurrant, cherry, leather, smoke and earth. Very supple, almost creamy wine with enticing sucrosité but also good restraint. An element of saline, spicy minerality on the back end gives this wine grip but it's nonetheless suppler in style than the examples from Auxey-Duresses. The yield here was just 13 hectoliters per hectare, according to winemaker Paul Zinetti.
