Red Wine

This is a delicious example of a young Burgundy. It’s from a family that works some of the most esteemed vineyards in the region organically and focuses on purity of flavors in the bottle. Francois’s son Edouard has taken over winemaking in recent years and has lightened the wines a bit.  The wine is supple, almost taut, but still has a generosity of flavors, especially bright red berries, which grow with exposure to air. Sweet earth and a little white pepper spice glide around the rich core of strawberries and raspberry fruit, all framed by well-integrated tannins that give it a firm but polite grip. This is a sophisticated wine that way over-delivers at its price point.
