Tasting Notes:
The first of Antoine and Juliette's wines has a slightly muted nose at present and surprisingly feminine palate but the backbone is undeniably Cote de Nuits. The fruit is more red than black and the oak will play an excellent supporting role when it is more integrated. (December 2014)
