A beautiful, serious expression of Burgundy, with ripe cherry, raspberry, dark berries, violets, autumn leaves, subtle mushroom, and savory spice. Silky and composed, with fine-grained tannins, a lovely mineral backbone, and a long, quietly persistent finish. The warm, concentrated 2019 vintage gives the wine extra depth and richness, while the site’s limestone soils keep it poised and elegant. A bottle for Burgundy people, and for anyone who wants to understand why Pinot Noir can be so mesmerizing.
