Nicolas Potel, Beaune 1er Cru (Burgundy, France) Clos des Vignes Franches 2002

($36, Frederick Wildman): The pure cherry-like fruit is packaged here in Potel’s signature silky suaveness. Tightly wound at this stage, I expect it will blossom beautifully over the next five years. I also put this one in my cellar. 90 Michael Apstein Jul 22, 2005
