On the palate, this vintage intrigues with its lithe red fruit, especially cherries and strawberries, which dance deftly with subtle notes of spice and earthiness - a nod to Les Brûlées' pebbly limestone canvas. Its graceful age has woven silky tannins with an assemblage of flavour that is at once both delicate and persistent.

Its eloquent expression of an atypical year renders it not just a rarity but a treasure within the lineage of Burgundy vintages.

In summing up this evocative creation's qualities, one must underline its resilience amidst adversity.
