4.0 / 5.0750 ml@Garage · Bourgogne Party Vol. 2 by Vova and Mykola

The 2020 Emphase offers up a delicate bouquet graced predominantly by sweet red fruits. This lively aroma is further complemented by the floral notes of peonies, painting a fragrant picture of a blossoming orchard. The palate closely follows, evoking the velvety consistency of kissel, underscored by a subtle bitterness reminiscent of dogwood or other herbaceous bitters.

While the wine might lack profound complexity, it certainly captivates with its interesting character. There are a few rough edges, true, but they don't overshadow the wine's inherent pleasantness. A lingering aftertaste ensures its presence is remembered, though it might benefit from a touch more acidity. It was easy to discern the youthful vigour of this wine, making it distinguishable from the eccentricity often associated with Yann Durieux.
