Further reviews of Faiveley village Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny and Gevrey to come. Importer: Negociants. Clean and pretty with raspberry and a subtle floral lift – earthiness tucked well in the background. It’s fresh and light with expressive fruit, kittenish tannin (playful but with a little traction) and good clean finish. A charmer with some improvement to come.

This is noticeably more elegant and slightly fresher as well with a pretty and solidly complex nose of primarily red currant and plum plus earth nuances that continue onto the delicious, precise and unusually fine flavors in the context of the appellation, all wrapped in a lingering finish that displays only mild rusticity.
