justerini & brooks tasting note

More Vosne-like than the 2009, very pretty, ripe hedgerow fruit flavours, floral bright and silky flavours of bramble, blackthorn and red cherry, hints of earth spice and mineral; great depth and complexity. Polished and complete Nuits. From a 60-year-old parcel of Nuits vines situated on the Vosne side of the appellation.

critic reviews

92+/100Stephen Tanzer,Vinous

Good full red. Aromas of raspberry, smoke and flowers show an almost liqueur-like exotic aspect. Sweet but very nicely balanced, with terrific density and a lightly saline character to the flavors of red fruits, coffee, mocha and minerals. Insidiously long on the rising finish, coating the palate with strong saline minerality. A lovely expression of soil with plenty of aging potential.
