From a 0.17ha, domaine-owned parcel located high on the Chambertin slope, this is a cool terroir and one of the last to be picked. Following a traditional vinification in open-top wooden vats, the wine is aged over two winters in cask (70% new). There is a rugged, savoury aspect to the dark fruit aromas, with hints of spice and earth. The texture is compact and tannic, and this should open well with age. Drinking window 2024-2039.
Classy crimson-purple in colour. The nose is discreet, stylish and very promising. The fruit is then noticeably richer in the mouth, headingtowards a touch of very ripe plums, but resisting crossing the line. There is proper intensity to the finish and enough acidity.
