Domaine Faiveley Beaune 1er Cru Clos de l'Ecu 2023

A notably ripe nose displays cassis

The Château Coutet 2001 Cuvée Madame was picked on October 10 and contains 208 grams per liter of residual sugar

with long and polished berry notes that are enhanced by mild spice and smoky mineral notes

violet and discreet earth nuances

The 1947 exhibited an extraordinary opaque purple color with only some lightening at the edge

pure and airy nose with its broad mélange of wild red berry fruit liqueur

Chapoutier's effort at making sweet vin de paille from raisined and dried-out Hermitage grapes was highly successful in 1991

From the valley floor

a scent of unsmoked

This is aromatically riper than the Chambertin though that is not especially surprising

The élevage lasted 16 months and was mostly in oval Stockinger 2

it may be sufficiently civilized to enjoy if you don't wish to wait for its full maturity
