Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru
Labels scuffed and slightly bin-soiled
At 7 years old from magnum. Not a very deep colour. Surprisingly earthy on the nose. Damp forest elements. Elegant finesse, with a certain "lightness of being". A touch 'spiky' in that RSV way, but then the sweetness kicks in. Cassis notes at the end. A medium-term keeper. Very flavoury. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
