Tasting Notes

"Here the nose is reduced though it has that curious type of reduction that the Burgundians refer to as bourgeon de cassis, which isn't unpleasant so much as it's atypical. There is terrific punch and detail to the middle weight flavors that aren't quite as concentrated or muscular as those of the Grands Echézeaux yet there is still impressive power on the wonderfully long finish. This is somewhat less refined than it usually is though by contrast it is more tannic and a wine that also should develop slowly over the next 20 to 25 years. I would add that I had the chance to taste from several different barrels and there were noticeable differences, in particular in terms of mid-palate volume and richness, so readers should take my projected range as provisional." - Burghound, BH95, tasted 10/2020
