The 2015 Bourgogne Rouge is a tripartite blend for vines in Puligny-Montrachet, Maranges Village and Hautes-C?tes de Beaune. It has an attractive bouquet: raspberry preserve mixed with crushed strawberry that opens nicely in the glass. The palate is ripe on the entry, soft in texture, quite caressing with a smooth raspberry and cranberry finish with a welcome touch of white pepper for good measure.
