  Pnp. Vinen lukter av lyserøde bær, som markjordbær, bringebær og muligens granateplejuice. Den er parfymert og floral, med roser, hvite liljer og har kryddertoner som minner om rosmarin og revet muskatnøtt. Lukten er intens på en god måte, veldig frisk og uten jordlige toner.
  I munnen følger den opp med lyserøde bær med samme parfyme, men noe mer avdempet. Vinen føles noe mørkere i munnen enn i nesa.
  Den intense friskheten driver vinen. Medium fruktkonsentrasjon, medium+ syre, lav tannin og middels lengde.
  Elegansen koster, men det er verdt det. 90p.

  Still young, give it at least 3-5 more years. Quite greenish on the nose at first. Needed a lot of air. Opened up after a couple of hours. High acidity, fresh red fruit, some dark berries, green herbs and a touch of bitterness in the long finish. Integrated and soft tannins.

  5/10/2019 - HowardNZ Likes this wine:

  Bottle Tasting of 2016s with Patrice Rion (Premeaux-Prissey): From a climat with stony, shallow soil and limestone underneath, noted Patrice. Still a bouquet of largely red fruit, red currants and red cherries and spices, more serious. In the mouth, purity and more elegance than the Bourgogne, and with deeper red fruit and more vigour and drive. Silky and mineral. Good structure and length. "Cellar for 5 - 7+ years", said Patrice, noting that "2016s have more apparent minerality than 2015s". A good Villages wine.
