Sunday, June 5, 2022 - Probably the single best burgundy of my life. When planing our trip down south, I was looking for a lunch stop between Burgundy and Lyon and found a nice place where I stumbled across this wine on the list for a lot of money but still a fraction of the market value, so I took the risk and was rewarded. I tasted the wine over several days (the restaurant happily provided the cork and a bag, no smashing bottles like DRC's lately).
Day 1:
The first glas after opening was already a revelation.
Bouquet of primary red fruits, mainly raspberries and interesting spring flowers. With time some blood-orange zest joined the flavour profile.
The palate brought utterly refined tannins, which made this wine already quiet approachable.
Day 2:
Needed some time in the glass to open up, but than exploded with forest strawberries, sour cherries and some ultimate chocolate (not to dark, around 65% cocoa).
Hard to accept, that those moments are rare, but I understand why the world is hunting down some of those wines.
