92 Points

Wednesday, January 19, 2022 - (Importer: North Berkeley Wine Imports)

"Clos des 60 Ouvrées" is an inner lieu-dit of Caillerets. Marl and limestone. Half the vines are 70 years old. Aged in French barrique (30% new) for 15 months. Unfined and unfiltered.
__________

Color: Med-dark to dark ruby. (Impressive).

Nose: Classic burgundian nose of sweet, dark red cherry liqueur, oak spice, and wet stone. Very pure and lovely nose.

Pal: Med-full body, excellent concentration. Rich sweet concentrated mid palette. Juicy acidity. Slight spritz on the finish at first (unfiltered). Ripe, soft tannins. Pinpont balance.

Really lovely wine. Beautiful, pure 1er Cru red Burgundy!

Solid: 92-93.
This dinks great right now.
And will age beautifully through 2028/30 (in a cool proper cellar).
