Though the wood is hardly subtle it's more completely integrated than in these other Beaune 1ers. The wonderfully airy and layered nose offers up aromas of earth, wild cherry, raspberry and a hint of stone. There is excellent volume to the solidly well-concentrated medium weight flavors that are at once suave but detailed, all wrapped in a tension-filled, dusty, austere and mouth coating finish of impeccable balance. A classic Clos des Ursules that should reward well 12 to 15 years of cellaring.
Healthy light crimson. Very fruity charm on the front palate and then pretty fine structure underneath. Chewy end. Marked bitter cherries and acidity.
