Very high VA

Formerly Ch Bélair

Vertical and imposing in its sense of structure

but the Vieilles Vignes is always exceptional

This too displays an unbelievably seductive nose of vanilla

Domaine, Heitz-Lochardet other_regions Very high VA(from Le Petit Clos). A fresher combination is comprised by notes of mostly white orchard fruit laced with hints of rosemary oil and lemon rind. There is a lovely sense of energy to the notably rich and tension filled larger scaled flavors that possess very good mid palate volume before concluding in a lingering if mildly warm finale. This should benefit from a few years of cellaring in order to develop a bit more overall depth.
