Sweet and spicy with some savoury earthy minerality. This is a monopole and just over the road (Rue) from Romanee Conti. Super fine tannins very much living up to its exalted address.

Medium ruby , quite narrow ruby garnet rim . Quite discreet , mix of red and dark fruits with limestone , rose , cranberry and blackberry . On the palate quite intense and mineral, chalky and cool strawberry , cranberry , blackberry and cherry . Shows more tannin than the 2017 , still quite young and fruit driven , but more mineral and darker fruits . Good mineral , chalky tinged length . Drinking well now though no rush over the next 10 years

Beautiful balance, fruit lovely and nice 13.5 alc and acidity. Everything working together, but has plenty of age left.

2013 vintage. Not much on nose. That's good. Some depth and complexity and smoke, spice and meat but soft and alluring. Excellent.
