Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru
Level into neck, scuffed and bin-soiled label
The total experience in this great vintage. The bouquet has everything. Violets, peat, raspberries. A mind-blasting total taste. A huge mouthful of wild cherries with plummy fruit, liquorice, all backed up by terrific tannin and ace acidity. Peat and black cherries on the finish. Monumental wine - a pillar of the vinous century in Burgundy.
