The 'Alouettes' is the polar opposite of the village-level 'Grives' - sometimes the bird theme is a bit confusing. The premier cru also comes from Monts Luisants, but at the base of the slope and not the top. The result is a wine with more black fruit than red and much more concentration and depth. There is a sensual appeal here and a more substantial heft that suggest that this should age well with time. Open in five years and drink over the next 20. Drinking window: 2028-2055. Score - 94.
