Tasting Notes

Aroma

It develops aromas of violet and small fruits (Morello cherry, blackcurrant). When older, it leans towards underbrush, fallen leaves and truffle over animal notes.

Appearance

Its colour is between crimson and purple - deep, dark and luminous.

Palate

In the mouth, it has a four- sided structure but its tannins are nonetheless delicate. The attack is straightforward, acidity and chewiness are harmoniously balanced, and the finish often carries a hint of liquorice.

Vinification

Handpicked harvest and first fermentation in stainless steel tank during 15 days. Second fermentation in oak barrels (30% max new casks). Maturation during 15-18 months in cellar for ageing, stored in barrels.

Cellaring Potential

20-25 years according to the vintage year.

Food Matching

The solid build of this wine hides, in fact, a certain delicacy, soon revealed by its length in the mouth and its liquorice-tinted finish. For this reason, this great Côte de Nuits red demands dishes equally intense in flavour. Meat dishes must be tender and melting, such as roast fowl, roast lamb, or feathered game. Even four-footed game, braised or stewed, will prove a worthy partner. Slow-cooked, spicy dishes such as couscous or glazed duck in the Chinese style will be perfectly at ease with its aromatic complexity. As for cheeses, medium flavored, shoft-centred cheeses like Reblochon or Vacherin will make a good match.
