Tasting Notes

Fresh purple, a little less immediately in one’s face than the Bourgogne. Slightly more delicacy on the palate but with a firm finish. There are 12 barrels of this, plus three which have been made separately from the lieu-dit Gamaires, with 40% whole bunches. This cuvée had a slightly livelier nose, with the flavours spreading further across the palate. At the time of tasting, Thomas had not decided whether to bottle this apart or to blend some or all of it with the main cuvée. A trial blend seemed to build on the advantages of the stems while developing more richness. Three stars without the Gamaires, four stars as a blend. The rating given assumes a blend. Tasted: November 2020
