2019 was a warm year in Burgundy, resulting in higher alcohol levels but also, above all, beautiful & fully ripened fruit. 12,000 bottles were produced from this vintage, all from a small 3.53ha parcel in this Grand Cru vineyard.

Medium ruby ​​red colour with purple hues. Floral nose with ripe black and red fruit - raspberry, blackberry, orange zest, star anise, bay leaf and exotic spices. Medium body with a lot of emphasis on the fruit, complemented by floral notes of roses, earth and forest floor. Complex, but precise, clean and balanced. Very long finish.
