Saturday, August 13, 2022 - Pretty deep ruby color. This takes a moment to open up, I gave it a 2 hours decant, but then it‘s starting to show red and dark red berries, some cassis too, also some candied violets, leather, some ferrous minerality (as it is often the case with the Vaucrains), it also shows some smokey notes, sweet spices and a touch of chocolate, soil/earth. It‘s medium-full bodied, with excellent mid-palate persistence, it has pretty high acidity and some medium-high tannin that is very silky but still needs a little time to integrate. Good length. A beautifully balanced and classic Vaucrains. Ideally I would give this another 2-3 years before it will start to really open up.
