Jean-Pierre Maldant Ladoix Les Buis

Pale cerise. A nose of great pinosity, red fruits and florals combine with baking spice and mineralite to give a Village wine of great aromatic complexity, emulated on the palate which is weightless, feminine and lithe. Delightful.

Dark cerise. Actually quite dark fruited, strong cassis on nose and palate, dark cherry, light thread of spice and heathland forest floor, limestone mineralite, delightfully light, breezy and feminine. 12.5% alcohol.

Not overly complex, but a beautiful weightless example of a red fruited, gently spiced, floral, mineral of feminine pinosity. Young and in a deliciously perfect place.

Uniquely different kind of Burgundy, spent several hours sniffing and sipping this getting a very unusual impression, before of came together around the 4 hour mark. Dark pomegranate fruit, roses, spice, charred meats, this is a dark and brooding Burgundy.
