Region: Burgundy 

Variety: Pinot Noir

What's in the glass: From the lieu-dit of Les Clous which has more limestone soil giving a fresher finer aspect to the aromas and the structure. This vineyard is full south facing and situated between the village Auxey and its neighbouring hamlet of Petit Auxey to the west with the vines averaging 30 years old. Just 20% new oak used here and bottled in December this wine is made with just 10% of whole bunches in the ferment. Fine fresh dark red berry aromas. Real finesse here with very fine and more substantial tannins from the limestone finishing with lingering perfume. Bright crunchy and very moreish. A great value that will also age for the medium term with a touch more tannin from the very chalky site.
Steps up, bacony juniper, blood orange. Sinewy, lean mineral palate. Good but edgy.
