Pale tawny red, like a dark rose. Nose of dried flowers, underripe strawberry, light herbs. The palate leans distinctly towards the white, I've tasted Pinot menieur Champagnes which seemed more purely "red", but behind this are tannins and secondary flavors of dirt and old leather. Light and savory, reminds me of Chateau d'Arlay's Corail. Fruitier and fuller day 3.

I advanced opening this wine based on the previous tasting, this bottle I double decanted about an hour before pouring, it arrived with more color and distinctly more fruit. Still this is a lean, mineral wine, even for poulsard. While this is nice, their whites are truly excellent. A nice match for taco salad.

Tawny ruby to light cola. Modest nose of warm berry pie. The palate is strongly mineral, with some wet red fruit, possibly reduced. The finish is medium, fresher and tarter, but still mostly stone. After an hour and half of air, deeper red and distinct red fruit palate. .

From memory, maybe almost 8 years is just too long for this very light Jura red, not bad, just weak.
