"It is not as sophisticated as a Rousseau Chambertin (heaven forbid!) however one could argue that this is cut from a similar cloth."

- Neal Martin

  

 

The 2013 vintage was the first to be certified organic. The grapes are sorted in both the vineyard and in the winery and that the fruit is 100% destemmed.

 

The vineyard itself is situated on a subsoil of marl, covered by a thin surface of scree and the finest silt. Brown chalky soil developed over these deposits. The Tortochot parcel, located at the highest part of the vineyard, is much whiter and very marly. This type of soil slows down the vegetative cycle and imparts this gem of a wine with an exquisite and rare balance.

A moderately herbal and wood-suffused nose is comprised mostly of various red berries and just turned earth. There is excellent detail and punch on the lighter weight mineral-driven flavors that terminate in a slightly sweet finale. - Allen Meadows, Burghound

The wood treatment is a bit more prominent on the spicy red and dark berry aromas that flash plenty of earth and sauvage nuances. There is a bit more verve to the big-bodied, intense and muscular flavors that exude evident minerality on the balanced, palate coating and impressively long finale. Here too patience will be beneficial. - Allen Meadows, Burghound

Moderate wood sets off an earthy mix of both red and dark currant along with an interesting hint of smoked meat. The acceptably concentrated, supple and nicely rich medium weight flavors possess both good depth and persistence on the youthfully austere finale. This will reward a decade plus of keeping yet should be reasonably approachable after only 5 to 7 years.- Allen Meadows, Burghound
