The glass is tinted with a brilliant, full purple-red. The nose announces the complexity of the wine, breathing out a fruit-laden perfume of cherries, raspberry and blackberry alongside mineral notes of stone and smoke. Add to this the wooded aromatics of toast and vanilla. In the mouth, you will encounter a concentrated wine. It is full-bodied, fleshy, precise and with astonishing persistence. A delight ! This cuvée needs a game dish such as pigeon with bacon and mushroom or a tasty jugged hare. It is delicious also with a leg of lamb or the untouchable bœuf bourguignon. Serve between 14°C and15°C. Wait for 5 to 6 years before tucking into this nectar. To drink ideally from 15 to 20 years old, or more depending on the vintage. jeanpierreguyon.com
