Incredibly vibrant and expressive with so much energy, this is a rocky and racy expression of the gamay grape. The effusive violet aroma is underlined by a touch of cooked red-beet character. It has a long, quite dry finish in which the fine, compact tannins and stony minerality are tightly interlocked. From a steep, very high-altitude parcel with volcanic soil at the top of the south side of Mont Brouilly. 70- to 80-year-old vines. 95 points - Stuart Pigott, James Suckling
"A steep south facing vineyard, at the top of the slope. The deepest ruby of the range tasted. A slightly gravelly nose reminds me of wines made in amphora, though this is (mostly) in foudres. Lots of stones, and higher altitude gives this effect. I like it." 90-92 points - Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
