  Bright garnet, medium body. Bright cherry and some tobacco on nose. Cherry drop, licorice, leather on mouth. Dryness with incredible cherry drop finish. Pretty good but not very good. Still youthful in feeling.

  Impressively rich nose of dried dark cherry fruit (almost coulis-like) with bits of cedar spice, smoke, lavender, anise and an intriguing note of juniper mixed with hedge grow/schrubs. Ends relatively firm with drying tannin and a background note of saw dust. Powerful fruit that becomes more backward with time in the glass. I would give this another five + years and then check up on it again.

  This wine is developing nicely. All the attributes of 2005 (including its tannins) melding together and softening into a lovely whole. Baked bean nose, hints of vanilla, soft red fruits but still enough stuffing to promise years of pleasure. Meaty, losing some of its sturdiness to be replaced by more typical Pinot elegance.

  Nose is opens nicely, pine and red fruit. Taste, good fruit with just a wisp of grip. Drinks now but I am betting on more with bottle time.

  Wonderfully ripe nose of deep raspberry, cherry fruits with a hint of pine and forest floor introduce medium weight flavors of similar fruits mixed with smoky meats, supported by good, integrated tannin. Very good resolve and elegant for a typical Marsannay. This is drinkable at present time but will only evolve for the better. Good body, weight and balance.
