Similar depth of colour to the La Columbière. The nose doesn’t shout so loud, but there’s lovely depth to the fruit and a slightly more spicy aspect. The palate is a little silkier, not particularly high acidity but there’s balance and the finish is still mouthwatering. This is a very tasty wine that reminds Louis-Michel of Chambolle.
Just 2 barrels in 2003. Medium-plus colour. This nose is higher toned than the the last two, and it seems there’s an extra layer of complexity. Again this wine is all about a balanced intensity of pinot fruit. There is a perceptible extra grain to the tannin vs the Clos du Château, but there’s also a gain on the finish – super length – Lovely wine.
Medium colour. The nose is totally different to all the other wines – slightly reductive – in the background, there’s red fruit that grows in prominence in the glass, lovely purity, the nose becomes higher toned with time. Louis-Michel thinks this reductive aspect is down to the terroir, he says that the 2002 behaved in exactly the same way. Eventually develops a coffee note on the nose. Poised, silky palate that’s very fruit forward – the essence of rich red cherries.
