In contrast to all of the preceding wines here the nose is distinctly floral in character while combining with red currant and wild red berries aromas. There is a beautiful sense of tension and delineation to the linear and driving mineral-inflected finish. This is also markedly more firmly structured than any wine in the range with the exception of the Marconnets. Excellent quality and worth a look, at least if you have the patience. - Comments: Sweet spot Outstanding ♥

There are few if any producers who outshine Geoffroy Choppin de Janvry in the village, and as the crystalline ruby red robes across the range for his 2010s attest, he's at the top of the heap for this vintage, as well. Aromatically, the plum and other assorted black pinot fruited profiles return and are allied to the spiciest nuances thus far to include clove, allspice and other assorted baking spices. On the palate, the dark and somber flavors are met by layers of earthy, powerful and gripping minerality, all of it held together by a tannic spine that suggests half a decade or more of down time. This could almost pass for top flight, masculine Nuits, and it's as serious as Beaune gets.

Bright medium red. Wild aromas of currant, game, leather, licorice and minerals. Densely packed and serious but less sweet than the Bressandes and Marconnets, showing flavors of redcurrant and game. Finishes with strong supporting oak tannins that come off a bit dusty today. This will need time in barrel to come alive. 91+
