Tasting Notes

**Note: from 40+ year old vines**
A completely different aromatic profile presents itself with a much more fruit-driven yet also more elegant nose that runs more toward cool red pinot and raspberry and while there is a touch of earth, it's subtle. The medium weight flavors are very Beaune in character with a rich, sweet and generous mouth feel and a detailed and mineral suffused finish. This delicate offering is on the linear side at present but packed with upside potential and vibrancy that should reward 6 to 8 years of cellar time.
