The 2014 vintage was difficult enough for red Burgundy in general. The fruit fly, Drosophila suzukii, wreaked even more havoc, according to Philippe, forcing them to sort severely. The wine reflects the challenges of the year with lighter colour and less concentration. Unexpected whiffs of maturity are already evident in the nose. That said, it does deliver charming nuances of bright and dried cherries atop the stone-y firmness characteristic of Givry.
