Description:
Our 2003 Beaux Frères reveals a classic Pinot Noir perfume of black fruits (a common characteristic of our finest vintages) in addition to forest floor and floral notes. We use about 80% new Francois Frères Barrels and it was interesting to see how easily the oak was absorbed in this wine. This medium to full-bodied, concentrated (yields were again very low), deeply colored Pinot Noir should have a minimum of ten to twelve years of aging potential. While not as broad or powerful as the 2002 Beaux Frères, it is richer than our highly successful 1999, and more accessible and forward than many of our cuvèes, before they round into shape. As usual, this wine has been bottled with neither fining nor filtration and extremely low levels of sulfur. Anticipated Maturity: 2006-2018
