Appellation:
AOC Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru, Cote de Nuits, Bourgogne

Country of Origin:
Burgundy, France

Type:
Red/Rouge (Still)

Grape Variety:
100% Pinot Noir

Tasting Notes:
A notably ripe and elegantly spicy mixture of cassis, black and blue berry plus red pinot fruit gives way to generous, fleshy and quite rich medium-bodied flavors that possess more volume than usual before culminating in an extract-rich finish that carries its structure effortlessly. This will need the better part of a decade to reach its peak.
