March 2, 2024 - Medium- red ruby color, lightening up a little towards the rim. Slightly candied aromatics of candied red and darker berries, some smokey/baconey notes that are probably caused by oak, there are also notes of violets as well as some orange zest. It's medium-bodied, with medium acidity and some medium tannin that is a little grippy. Good length. A pretty, but not overly complex red Burgundy that is very good QPR.

October 19, 2023 - Ein ausgezeichneter Wein und eine gelungene Darstellung eines preiswerten Pinot Noir aus Burgund. Das Bouquet ist ausdrucksstark mit rauchigem Eichenholz, einer Spur von Kräutern und einer leichten Eigenart. Mit etwas Belüftung öffnet er sich wunderbar und zeigt Noten von Zitrusfrüchten, etwas kaltem Früchtetee und einer ätherischen Qualität. Am Gaumen präsentiert er sich mit geringen Tanninen und lebhafter Säure, mit einer guten Länge im Abgang. Vielleicht nicht die höchste Komplexität, aber ein Genuss zum Trinken.

April 21, 2023 - Mary Taylor Wine Tour d'Amtrak and Dinner; 4/20/2023-4/21/2023 (New York, NY): Small glass. Maybe it just pales in comparison to the 2005, but this seems light and almost interesting.
