Formerly known as the cuvée "La Croix Blanche," Tremblay's 2018 Bourgogne Côte d'Or derives from well-situated parcels in the communes of Vosne-Romanée and Chambolle-Musigny. Offering up an inviting bouquet of red berries, woodsmoke and raw cocoa that's framed by a deft touch of oak, the wine is medium to full-bodied, velvety and concentrated, with a fleshy core of fruit, elegant structuring tannins and lively acids.

The 2018 Bourgogne Cote d'Or includes just 10% whole-cluster fruit this year. The nose is a little closed at first, offering mainly dark berry fruit laced with white pepper. The nicely focused palate is well balanced with fine delineation and a judicious touch of spice toward the finish. Enjoy over the next four to five years.
