The radiance of youth colors its intense, brilliant ruby. Its refined, suave bouquet opens with a delicate scent of rose petals, followed by fruity aromas of raspberry, blackberry and wild strawberry, with spicy notes of pepper and nutmeg. The palate is full-bodied and long-lasting.
This wine will need a good ten years to fully assert itself and demonstrate the true dimensions of its aromatic palette.
The nobility of this wine demands rich, complex pairings. So it’s only natural to pair it with a tasty mature rib-eye steak or a fillet of venison with Burgundy truffle purée. As for cheeses, soft and washed-rind cheeses abound in Burgundy.
