"A smooth, feminine wine!"

"Deep in color, almost black, it displays an impressive concentration of dark plums, with earthy and smoky notes and a hint of leather. The tannins are firm but very finely grained. With its power and concentration, this wine is almost reminiscent of Drouhin’s work in Oregon rather than in Burgundy. This vineyard is located in the center of the village of Les Godeaux, at the top of the slope above Lavieres, with south-facing vines.” (Decanter 2021)
