Tasting notes : The violet color of this Burgundy and its lovely black fruit notes (cherry, black currant) give us a great density on the pallet and an aromatic complexity. The toasted oak from aging is present and there’s a beautiful finesse to the tannins. It is a fairly tense and well-structured wine.
