The Story

This Grand Cru ranks among the 100 best red wines of the world. / The vineyard Clos des Lambrays is one of the greatest surface area in Grand Cru from all the Côte de Nuits..

Written Notes

Bright ruby. Spicy and almost exotic Pinot nose, and it actually gives me a flashback to the 1945 vintage right away with its slightly rich and opulent style. Pure and did not need too long to show. Almost peppery, some plums and almost thick of strawberries. Rich yes, but never cooked or warm feel. Fresh acidity, ripe tannins, fruit driven, quite lively and intense. Not as long or refined as some, at least not at this stage, but might be something awesome for the cellar. 93
