Since 2002 there's been no Cabernet in the blend

The 2016 Chardonnay Genevieve's Block simply sings of jasmine

Cherry and blackberry aromas rise to the front with lingering tones of smoke

There’s a refined tension and Nebbiolo-like structure

Five-spice

Roulot, Auxey Duresses 1er Cru Size:6x750ml Since 2002 there's been no(from Bas des Duresses and Les Grands Champs; 50% whole clusters). This is aromatically similar to the Monthlie though with a much broader array of floral elements thanks to the substantial percentage of whole clusters. The barely middleweight flavors are also on the lighter side but with better punch and notably better depth on the lingering and slightly more structured finale. This is really quite pretty and fashioned in an understated style.
