A bright red wine, ranging from ruby red to dark purple and often very deep in color. With a fiery red color sometimes garnet it approaches dark purple. The bouquet is often described as having ripe fruit with a touch of spice, accompanied by notes of strawberry, raspberry and cassis. These complex aromas often develop with age into notes of cherry brandy, leather and fur, and are reminiscent of a hunting satchel. On the palate the wine is velvety and distinct and we find the affluence pinot noir from this area has to offer. A wine worthy of aging, balanced tannins, richness and structure with a subtle attack. Sometime austere in its youth, its structure and roundness develop in bottle. Often full bodied and voluptuous on first glance. “ Burgundy has done nothing better with this little corner where she meets her enchantments” written by Gaston Roupnet a burgundian writer. This appellation is located on both sides of Grands Cru vineyards, on top of the hill or foothills and sometimes is located at the same altitude.
