2017 Frederic Esmonin Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru Jeroboam (3.0 liters)

Burghound 92.

"This is the first wine in the range to display reductive notes and while I expect that they are largely due to the very recent bottling, I would suggest decanting this if you’re going to crack a bottle in the next 12 months or so. Otherwise there is once again an attractive sleekness to the precise and vibrant medium weight flavors that brim with minerality that really comes to the fore on the impressively complex and persistent finish that is somewhat linear at present. I would expect this to flesh out with bottle age. (from a .52 ha parcel of 50+ year old vines)"
