Review: |
"The soil here is more shallow than the soil of de Villaine’s other two Côte Chalonnaise reds, and the vine roots are right on top of the limestone of the former seabed (roche mer calcaire). Stylistically, Les Clous is in between La Fortune—lighter and brighter—and La Digoine—the densest and most sappy, characterized by medium weight with more red fruits, smooth but present tannins, and distinctive polish." |
