The Story

Christophe makes the wine as naturally as possible, vines are hand-tended, the wine undergoes a controlled fermentation with maceration before and after, and the wines rest sur lie in barriques for as long as possible, usually 16 to 18 months. The long slow ageing enables these wines to be bottled without filtration. 15-25% new oak is used for the village appellations whilst 40-50% is used for the 1ers and Grand Crus. The result is intense, no...

Written Notes

The 2000s are a fashionable vintage to drink young, so I was quite curious to try a wine from one of the best producers in all of Burgundy, although I couldn't help but notice the 2002 on the list at about the same price. 'The 2000 is more ready,' explained Dr. Desai, which offered a glimpse into his mind and thought process. The nose had sexy, cherry fruit that was incredibly fragrant and forward. Besides loads of cherry, rosy and stemmy fruit, the 2000 had additional, complex aromas of pure earth, spice, forest, mint and chocolate. Round, smooth and satiny, its palate had a nice kick of acidity on the finish, but the nose was ahead of the palate by a bit at this stage. Its palate had a leathery backbone that was firm yet understated, but its fruit had this just-beginning-to-bud quality with some benevolent green and muted fruit flavors. The 2000 had a 95-point nose, but the palate still needed to grow. The backside had 'oomph' and hence promise, but the palate was a bit light texturally up front

Good fullish, vigorous colour. Lovely fruit on the nose. This has depth, vigour and class. Medium-full weight. Ample, fresh, harmonious and very stylish. An excellent example of the vintage which will still keep.
