A veritable “trouvaille” from sommelier Midas van der Meiden. Made from 100% Gevrey village fruit from relatively young vines (< 30 years). Pristine bottle, perfect level. Classically styled, cedary, quite tannic and structured for a 2000, let alone a Bourgogne Rouge. Wonderfully fresh Pinot fruit and nutty, forest floor complexity, remarkable body and power, mature finish, very good length. Fully mature but will last.

Slightly oxidative style, baked apple, but also bursting with freshness and energy, tight citrus minerality.

No detailed notes, but it seemed better and more energetic than I remembered it.
