RATINGS

97Vinous / IWC

Bright, floral and lifted...captures all of the finesse that makes wines from this site so seductive. Rose petal, crushed flowers of all sorts, red stone fruits, mint and cinnamon all lift from the glass in a precise, impeccable Burgundy.

96-98The Wine Advocate

...reveal a very harmonious, feminine, delineated bouquet with perfectly placed red berry fruit, touches of flint and even marmalade...palate is beautifully balanced with filigree tannins, very well judged acidity with a sensual, supremely focused finish with razor-like precision and beguiling femininity. Outstanding.

93-96Stephen Tanzer

...scents of raspberry, lees and underbrush. Then almost shockingly penetrating in the mouth, with powerful saline minerality giving shape to the berry, smoke, exotic spice, mineral and earth flavors...extremely long, smoky aftertaste, where the tannins are thoroughly buffered by the wine's mid-palate material.

18.5Jancis Robinson

Racy and energetic. Not heavy in any sense. Bravo!

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir, Grand Cru

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
