CAVE DE DOCTEUR BAROLET
Clos de la Roche--Vintage 1921
Côte de Nuits, Docteur Barolet (Henri de Villamont)
Level: one 4.5cm and one 5cm; lightly bin soiled, one torn label with Scotch taped label
"Clean, bright and remarkably elegant aromas that are mature but possess only traces of sous bois and a wonderfully layered quality are followed by complex, delicious and persistent flavors that coat the mouth and display real vibrancy. This is clearly a mature wine but one that is very 1921 in the sense that it is ripe but not overly so and has a lovely transparency to it without being light. I would be drinking this now and over the next 5 to perhaps 10 years." BH 2002
