In the glass
Aroma: morello cherry, cherry in eau de vie, spice
Palate: ripe cherry, spice
Selected from five plots, Rosieres, Beranger, En Muzard, Corvees sous Curon and Chevrette, all on Bajocien limestone scree over Lias clay, with vines back to 1930. The estate reports very ripe fruit, morello and cherry in eau de vie with spice, and a broad palate of fine ripe tannins.
