Michel Lafarge, Bourgogne Rouge Vintage:2020 Impenetrable reduction overwhelms the underlying

Impenetrable reduction overwhelms the underlying fruit today

and there are toasty notes redolent of roasted sunflower seeds

Stronger balsamic notes emerge with time in the glass

with more tension than in 2012

Best from 2022 through 2035

Michel Lafarge, Bourgogne Rouge Vintage:2020 Impenetrable reduction overwhelms the underlying(from 40+ year old vines in Petit Pr which was once classified as Volnay villages). This is also exuberantly fresh and bright with a very pinot nose of red berries, earth and more spice elements that are reflected by the sleek, delicious and well detailed middle weight flavors that possess even better depth and persistence. This too boxes well above its weight.
