(from the northern part of the Chambolle side where the soil is referred to as terres blanches; here too Leroux indicated that this would be bottled only in magnum). A subtle application of wood sets off the layered and appealing aromas of plum, cassis, red currant liqueur and plenty of floral nuances. There is really lovely detail to the intense big-bodied flavors that possess that highly attractive sense of underlying tension that continues onto the stony and palate coating finish thanks to the abundant amounts of dry extract. This is very much built for the long-term and with the larger format bottle this is going to require patience. Note that my suggested drinking window takes into account the magnum format.
