Burgundy Class Tasting (Williams Club): Light, brickish shifting to tan on edges. New leather, anise and fennel nose with hints of damp earth. Shifts between black cherries and ripe cherries, firm tannins, exotic spices and black pepper. Slightly washed out overall, but still impressive and may benefit from some cellaring.

Burgundy Class Tasting (Williams Club): Ruby in color with a slight browning. Barnyard, soft cheese and smoke on the nose. Baked cherry and earth with bracing acidity balanced by a wood chip/tanbark like astringency. A bold style.

Burgundy Class Tasting (Williams Club): Dark garnet color with good depth. Powdered sugar, cherry and anise notes. Finishes with milk chocolate and a slight gamey character.
