Deep red color, powerful & elegant aromas with notes of cherry and blackberry, as well as hints of cedarwood.
Beautiful balance between structure & softness with a long aftertaste reminiscent of fruit syrups & mild spices
The nose has notes of red berries such as cherry & woody notes exhale. The palate reveals fruity notes, peppery notes & the finish is expressed on the texture, generous material, & solid but silky tannins from the optimized breeding in barrels of light oa

Woodsmoke & gamy funk are the first aromatic pointers of this wine. Next, the palate comes in with gentle smoke, the gamyness blending with ripe red-cherry fruit. Slender body shows a fine web of tannin as well as lovely freshnes
Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Charmois is a lieu-dit sitting on the south side of the combe behind the town with a northeast exposition. Les Charmois ripens later and displays pretty fruit character with pronounced earthiness and is firmly structured.
90pts Burghound
Nose is comprised by notes of exotic tea plum & anise along with a subtle floral hint. There is again very good richness volume & vibrancy to the medium-bodied flavors that conclude in a youthfully austere balanced & sneaky long finale.
Shows aromas and flavors of red berries, herbs, and purple flowers. The palate is rich with ripe fruit and medium weight with bright acidity and fine tannins. Aging in up to 25% new Burgundian pièce brings notes of vanilla, toast, and baking spices.
