Encore beaucoup d’arômes primaires de fruits (cerises), mais l’acidité et les tannins sont beaucoup plus discrets qu’en jeunesse. N’a pas évolué encore vers les arômes tertiaires mais ça devrait apparaître dans les prochaines années. Il est vraiment excellent en l’état, équilibré et assez complexe.

On nose : med+ intensity, red fruit : red currant, black fruit : black current, subtle of vanilla oak, significant tobacco, dry leafiness, licorice, wet earth, light spiciness, flesh and complex.
On palate : dry, high acidity, med intensity flavor, red fruit-forward, med alcohol and med body with dry leafiness and elegancy on mid-palate, red fruit sour and savory with med and fine tannin aftertaste. Med to med+ finishing.
It is a very good wine. The red fruit and the tobacco are well balanced with the oak elegancy. I was impressed a good wine can be made by the smallest area in Côte Chalonnaise. For sure, Givry is the most famous one in this area. The wine is very promising. This wine can be opened and enjoy now but there is no doubt to still keep it for 3 more years!

Bu avec un ami qui en a commandé pas mal....en même temps que Servoisine et Cellier aux Moines. Pas mauvais mais rien de bien complexe aussi. Fruit pur avec belle acidité, tanins poudreux et finale qui tombe sec. Un peu mieux que Cellier aux moines.

Pale ruby in color with marked black fruit and perfume aromas. Elegant. Very primary with expressive black cherry notes on the palate. Crisp acidity. Very pretty wine.

Beginning to open from a dormant phase. Not yet there, and I will hold my other bottles for a couple of years.
