60 year old vines in the centre of the appellation. More clay than in the Faconnières below. Very intense purple and massive density in a very good way. Serious but with elegance thinks Stéphane. I find his 2020 Clos St-Denis immaculate, nuanced, graceful and then with this awesome burst if flavour at the back, the hedonistic side of this grand cru. Tasted: December 2021.
