Tuesday, June 22, 2021 - An elegant and reticent cool nose is followed by ripe blue and red fruits minerally driven flavors, there is good density and intensity of flavors that ends in a very long flinty finale that dries and coats the mouth. This is a good companion for a soft and fat dish, a dish with a thick and fat reduction to offset the chalky dry persistence. This is a very fine lip smacking flint candy though(if that exists) with very fine tannins and sleek fruit over active flintstone. On day two it shows more blackfruit, a good sign for keeping this in the cellar for five more years. This uphill terroir delivers minerally intense and racy wines- A statuesque kind of wine -not far from Musigny in style, just a bit leaner. I tend to prefer this uphill terroir in warm to very warm vintages as it will always yield more hedonistic flesh.
