2017 Blagny Premier Cru La Pièce sous le Bois

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: Notes of sweet red cherries, herbs and dried flowers introduce the 2017 Blagny 1er Cru La Pièce Sous Le Bois, a medium-bodied, succulent wine with a tangy core of fruit, light but chalky tannins and a mouthwatering finish. From a high altitude, stony site, this is a singular Côte de Beaune bottling that will appeal to purists who love tensile, precise reds. - William Kelley, Jan. 2019

Allen Meadows' Burghound: This too is really quite pretty with its more exotic nose where notes of mandarin orange, passion fruit and white peach-inflected aromas can be found. There is more volume if less minerality on the medium-bodied flavors that once again are not especially complex though I like the sneaky good length. This may well develop more depth with a few years in bottle and that's what I would suggest doing. - Allen Meadows, Jun. 2019
