"This special cuvÊe is made from the southernmost of Faiveley's three parcels in Clos de Bèze; five barrels, three of them new: Good bright red. Very closed nose hints at rose petal and cinnamon. Wonderfully silky and sweet on the palate, with outstanding definition to the perfumed red raspberry and spice flavors. Finishes with explosive rising length and racy, fine-grained tannins. In its kernel of spice and its superb density and thrust, there's something Musigny-like about this understated but potentially great wine."
