Tasting Notes

This is displaying some post-bottling reduction so if you're going to crack a bottle in the name of science, be sure to decant it first. More interesting are the wonderfully refined yet almost painfully intense flavors that brim with both salinity and minerality while delivering strikingly good persistence on the youthfully austere, linear and hugely long finale. This is potentially terrific though I underscore that this is presently a block of stone so I would advise not touching a bottle before 10 years of age, save perhaps for that one bottle opened in the name of science! Note: from a .17 ha parcel at the top of the vineyard that abuts Chambertin Drink: 2034+
