from the website I glean that this is a combo of 2 lieux dit : Aux Réas and Rivière Sol, towards the Nuit end of the commune. 20% new oak.
nose - spicy. i suspect its a combo of vosne- and barrel- spice mouth- freshness and purity is evident, though its a bit disjointed with a lot of spice that comes "barreling" late. good acidity. Will let this sit overnight and try again in 24hrs. —- 24+ hr later, fruit is a bit more prominent, already absorbing the spice better, but its all in all quite a strong mouthful; loads of potential here but exactly how will it flesh out? Check back in 5+ years.

PnP. Very approachable and delicious, but a nice depth of red fruit. Follows the trend of charming 21s, but should settle down with another year or so.
