Delightful, fairly even strawberry red. A warm, welcoming nose: not a great deal of fruit, but clearly pinot noir and with a hint of tannin. Quite rounded, open attack, almost with some orangey hints. Fairly mouthfilling, but in a light way. Good length, but slightly bitter at the end. Comes into its own much more in Riedel Burgundy glass: the nose opens up and it loses the bitter note on the finish. A very nice, light, but very satisfying Burgundy.
