Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru
Excellent levels and appearance, straw wrapped, case banded until inspection; Excellents niveaux et apparence, emballées avec de la paille, caisse cerclée d'origine jusqu'à l'inspection
From magnum at 9 years old, it has a very good colour, especially for 2000. Pure liquorice on the nose. Sweet spicy earth. Utterly enticin🍰g, intoxicating, hedonistic taste. That real wild strawberry flavour. Sweet Little Scarlets and damp earth on the palate. Very harmonious. Very "feminine" and full of charm, but there is no mistaking the deep flavour. Liquorice on the finish, as it began. Delightful wine and magical to drink at any time of its life. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
