Sattes, dichtes Granat mit lila Reflexen. Parfümiertes Waldbeerenbouquet, sehr nobel im Ausdruck, gekochter Holunder, wirkt sanft konfitürig in der Nase, gleichzeitig aber auch schön frisch. Im Gaumen elegant und eher leicht wirkend, bleibt rotbeerig, wilde Himbeeren und somit eher burgundisch in der Fruchtausrichtung, schlankes Finale. Ein delikater Wein, der die Finessen, aber leider nicht die Kraft eines Premier Cru's zeigt. trinken (2009 - 2020)

Wonderful blackberry and crushed raspberry aromas follow through to a full-bodied palate, with velvety tannins and a long, caressing finish. Balanced and long, with a lot in reserve. I like it as much as the 2000. Best after 2011. 2,500 cases made. ?JS

Performing better out of bottle than it did from cask, this brilliant terroir has produced an elegant, dense ruby-colored, medium-bodied 2004 (2,666 cases) with complex aromatics of raspberries, blueberries, crushed rocks, and spring flowers. Not a powerful, muscular effort, it reveals pure, sweet fruit in its delicate personality. Give it 1-2 years of cellaring and drink it over the following 10-15.
