Maxime Crotet, Bourgogne Rouge 2024 Rare with strong hints of pine

with strong hints of pine and tart red fruit rounding out the picture

fortified with neutral spirit and then sent to barrel for 5 years

so we're at the pointy end of their offering

particularly alongside Lumachelles

Tastes kind of like Five Alive

Maxime Crotet, Bourgogne Rouge 2024 Rare with strong hints of pinePlace: Burgundy, France Grape: Pinot Noir Vibe: Elegant duh! From a plot in Cheilly les Maranges from the upper part of the parcel, an average of 65 year old vines. All about elegance. Silky and smooth, this supplies all the fine red fruit and tea like spice were after. Perfectly balanced and ready to go from the offset. That said, I'll be stashing a few away for a rainy day as the upside potential here is looking great. ABV: 12%
