Great wine of Bourgogne
• 94/100 James Suckling
Tasted in 2021 by James Suckling: "This is a very structured wine with layers of fruit and phenolics that give it tension and concentration. Full-bodied, firm and rich, with wonderful length and intensity. Lots of dried apple, vanilla bean and cream. Tasty finish. Drink now."
