Fairly dense ruby color. Expressive and fairly complex nose of black fruits with a touch tobacco and earthy notes. On the palate, sweet fruits and tobacco, but with fairly high acidity and some tannins. Long finish but slightly astringent with a bit of heat. Ultimately lacks depth and strength. Yet I still find it enjoyable overall, and good with food.

Much improved since last drank in 2011. As in the past, medium tonlight intensity nose of tart red fruits. But the palate! An array of tart and sweet red fruits, balanced by earth, bracing acidity and still a fair amount of tannin. Finish lingers on before finally ending in a bit of heat. Finally mature bit hardly drinking this too old.

Expressive nose of strawberry, cranberry and rich earthy notes. Fruit forward, nicely balancing sweet red fruits with lovely mushroom-earthy tones, then nice balancing acidity comes to the fore. A lovely expression of bargain Bourgogne.
