From purchased grapes. The high-toned nose is a little animale – softly musky. The palate is wide and ripe with understated but very present tannins. Lovely balancing acidity and good length. This is another wine that you can keep for years – though unlike the Corton, not out of neccessity! Eventually the nose is more fruit driven with sweet oak notes complimenting.
The nose is Wide with a deep and interesting fruit centre, it’s faintly peppery with a pinch of Gevrey earth too – give it time and it becomes fuller and also gives glimpses of red fruits. The palate is wide and with good concentration. There are plenty mildly grainy tannins grabbing the inside of your mouth, but this is a forward forward ripe and nice wine which can easily balance the structure. Certainly not elegant, but fun!
This wine also starts a little slowly the glass, but after a short while the aromatics become quite interesting with faint coffee supporting a nice black fruit profile. In the mouth this is very wide and concentrated with a little grain to the tannin. There’s real mid-palate intensity and just a little oak texture on the long finish. Very high-class villages.
