Bottle Tasting of 2016s with Patrice Rion (Premeaux-Prissey): "From 75+ year old vines, close to Les Amoureuses", said Patrice. A step up. An intoxicating, pungent nose of morello cherries under spirit, cassis, dark plums and other dark red and black fruit, with some dark floral perfumes. On palate, velvety and opulent, with more volume and fruit weight and length. "An elegant, charming wine", as Andrew said, but with some slatey minerals at its core. Very good. Give it 5+ years, I'd think.
