Jane Eyre - Julienas - 2022

From En Capitain and the delightfully named Bottes de Chat, on granite and blue marl soils. 60% whole bunch, slow to ferment so four weeks on skins followed by a mix of ageing vessels. A more concentrated purple colour than the Fleuries. More backward, more muscle. Almost some blue fruit, many more tannins, punchy stuff, 14.5% alcohol which it can certainly carry. Drink from 2026-2032. Tasted: October 2023. 91 Points - Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy
