silky tannins add to the wine's considerable raciness

This is a precise and sharp wine with a heightened sense of focus and definition that is backed by pretty mineral shadings

Robert Chevillon, Nuits Saint Georges Chaignots other_regions_italy is illuminating(a blend of 60 and 40 year old vines). Deeper register aromas of earthy but spicy dark berry fruits and a touch of animale leads to serious, dense and relatively powerful flavors that culminate in a dusty, mouth coating and admirably persistent finish. This doesnt have the style of the Bousselots but its appealing in its way. Its interesting how these two vineyards, which abut one another, give completely different results. (89 91) 2012+
