| Review: |
"The vines in the Juillot family’s parcel of les Champs Martin are forty-three years of age. The wine is completely destemmed and was raised in thirty percent new casks in this vintage. The wine delivers a very refined aromatic constellation of red and black cherries, gamebird, bonfire, a fine base of soil tones, a bit of espresso, fresh thyme, mustard seed and cedar. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied, focused and very complex, with a superb core of fruit, great soil signature and grip, ripe, buried tannins and a long, poised and very promising finish. This is terrific red Burgundy in the making!" |
