Appellation: Bourgogne Rouge
Striking nose of charry fragrant oak. Clearly the oak errs on the dominent side but it sure is sexy in its allure. Well handed albeit very forceful. Palate weight is much much lighter. Hard to believe the oak barely its head in the flavour profile so softly relative to the nose. Not much by way of primary fruit, and to be honest I really only get mature generic red berry characters (and faint at that). Structurally quite sound, just not a lot of excitement (and the '99 is a much better bet right now).
