A fine and elegant wine: nose of crunchy fresh fruits, a refined and velvety substance.
Olivier Leflaive Description
Located on the higher level, this well-exposed to South-East climat is generally early during the harvest. The brown limestone sloped soil is shallow. The style of the wine is fairly full-bodied, like Pommard, the neighbouring village.
Wine Spectator: 92 Points
Pure flavors of black cherry and black currant are shaded by smoke and spice accents, here. Burly tannins add grip and structure, yet all the components are in the right place. Shows fine length.
Burghound: 91 Points
This too is very deeply hued. A discreet application of wood sets of the slightly more elegant aromas of black cherry, raspberry and violet. The medium weight flavors possess a bit more mid-palate stuffing as well as noticeably more minerality on the delicious, balanced and lingering finish that is firmer still.
