From vines planted in 1904 that is now Nicolas’ own vineyard. The nose is a brooding melange of dark berries with width rather than depth. Sweet and concentrated, again with quite sophisticated structure and significantly longer than the last wine. Very good.
From 70 year-old vines that produced a mere 12hl/ha, put another way, only 3 barrels from 1 hectare! Very deep colour. The nose is perfumed, some herb notes and slowly gives up a little kir and tar. In the mouth there is volume and concentration, plenty of tannin – but velvet tannin. Again no spare padding. This is a very serious Beaune that will require lots of cellar time – fantastic quality.
