RATINGS

96The Wine Advocate

...aromas of red berries, cherries and plums mingled with exotic spices, peonies, blood orange and raw cocoa, it's full-bodied, layered and concentrated, with a broad attack and a deep, multidimensional core. Long and perfumed...

94+ John Gilman

...excellent, offering up a nicely red fruity bouquet of red plums, cherries, raspberries, beautiful Vosne spice tones, a beautiful base of soil, rose petals and nutty new oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and beautifully sappy at the core, with fine transparency and grip, suave, buried tannins, lovely focus and a long, complex and very classy finish. Fine, elegant juice.

93-95Vinous / IWC

...scents of truffle, damp autumnal leaves and dark berry fruit...palate is medium-bodied with more cohesion than the nose, modest weight, fresh and lightly peppered with a dab of white pepper and bay leaf towards the finish.

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.
