Young, fruity with strong notes of blue berries (myrtilles) and blackcurrants (cassis). A hint of strawberries (fraise). We transferred it twice in a carafe to take out the little remaining carbon (the wine is still a little young we will wait a bit to open the others).

Had a rib-eye steak and the wine went very well. Nothing distinguished but light, fruity, pinot flavors of cherry and strawberry. Rate it 87. Easy to drink-- drink within next 3 years.

Knightsbridge Annual Holiday Burgundy/Champagne Tasting and Sale (Northbrook, IL): Walk around tasting. Slightly reductive start. Black and red cherry throughout with good density for its level. Good now.
