Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, France
Much more primary than the 2012. Exceptional fruit quality. Some funky. Like 1% Brett. Gorgeous purity. Mint, spice, menthol. Floral. Big cherries. Leafy and stony as well. Enormous concentration and purity but young grippy slate like tannins that need a few more years to settle. The raw materials here are breathtaking. Chewy, dense, powerful yet also graceful and hella long. Really long. Very very impressive.
