Very uncharacteristic for such a high quality producer. Tasted blind and most guessed Syrah, Rhone or California . Big, bold jammy fruit. May be more representative of the vintage rather than the producer.

This was the 2nd of two bottles that were purchased. The first one was premoxed, and the second was questionable. Very strange nose - not butterscotch like the first, but almost like a wax candle. The nose blew off with a few hours and the tannins were a little grippy, with pale fruit showing through. This domaine has had a notorious problem with promox, so i would tread carefully.

Good value for the price. Spicy, earthy notes with strong acidity that will give this a long life. Drank over 2 days - and by the 2nd day, the tannins relaxed and the fruit really came through. I wouldn't call this "Burgundian", but it is surely not a new world fruit bomb.
