Quite a deep colour. The nose starts in a very promising way, like Griotte… Chambertin that is. Given a little time it becomes more and more diffuse and soon starts to hint at taint. The palate is fresh and steely without any resemblance to Griotte. There’s good intensity to the fruit but the finish has a high-toned metallic edge and more obvious taint – it’s also very short. A shame – it started so well.
