"Full ruby. Wild, complex nose of great purity and depth: dark berries, bitter chocolate, game, minerals, flowers. Incredibly vibrant and young but with no trace of youthful hardness. Firmly structured but wonderfully sweet and perfumed in the middle palate. Finishes with very fine tannins and outstanding persistence. For those Burgundy lovers who maintain that this vineyard is close to grand cru in quality, this wine would buttress their position. A great, perfectly ripe expression of a cool site, and therefore a wine of multiple facets. This was 12.8% natural alcohol, chaptalized to 13.4%, according to Dugat."
