This is the 'Cuvée du Roi' 2012 and is clearly a Bourgogne from the Cotes-du-Nuits. This is rich and silky with great depth and structure that has some lovely acidity and fine tannins that drinks well above its level. Could easily be a good C-D-N villages. — 10 years ago

Still youthful, though not any better than on the day it was bottled to be honest. Can anybody tell me if the phrase on the back requiring under 14°C storage implies the wine does not have added sulfur? I don't think the N/S markings were used in the 90s on his wines. — 10 years ago
