Country: France / Clos Rousseau Premier Cru
Variety: Pinot Noir Burgundy
Winery: Labouré-Roi / Santenay
This wine has structure and strong old-wood flavors. It comes from the most southerly Premier Cru in the Côte de Beaune, close to the Chalonnaise vineyards. The fruit is still working its way through the tannins of this firm wine. It will have a juicy red-berry character as it develops, giving the potential for aging. Drink from 2018.
