The wine then spends another 12 months in old oak foudres

all wrapped in a bitter pit fruit finale that offers impressive persistence

yet those components are wonderfully judged

this offers grand cru complexity but only 1er density and length

Drouhin Laroze, Chambolle Musigny other_regions_italy The wine then spends another(a mix of 80% Les Baudes and 20% from the villages portion of Les Vroilles). This too is noticeably reduced and tough to read. There is however a lovely sense of underlying tension to the rich, punchy and powerful medium bodied flavors that are overtly muscular though not rustic on the impressively complex and lingering finish that is presently quite compact. This isnt especially elegant but it certainly doesnt lack for character or stuffing. (90 93)
