Darker fruit on the nose than you normally associate with the Cru, with blackberry and anise mingling with ripe raspberry and white pepper. There is ample weight for a Gamay but the elegant acidity keeps it balanced. There is some tartness here, so the fruit is a little drier on the palate than the nose, but you’ll find riper red berry flavours with some wood spice and violets and great tannic structure. Pair with a roast chicken dinner with all the trimmings.

This fragrant, elegant red opens with enticing scents of underbrush, sunbaked earth, wild berry, violet, crushed mint and a balsamic note. Smooth and savoury, the linear palate has surprising vibrancy for such a hot vintage, delivering juicy Marasca cherry, strawberry compote, star anise and white pepper. Elegant, fine-grained tannins lend polished support while a coffee note lingers on the finish.
