Not the clearest of Pinots (as has been true of this wine throughout my nearly-done case), but nicely mature. I agree with the last poster's noting fruitcake elements, making for an interesting glass.

2005 Marsannay Le Clos de Jeu from Domaine Collotte. Sensational value, an incredibly deep red colour, slightly cloudy on opening, no visible ageing whatsoever. Aroma shows bright strawberry, cherry, violet, rose petals, crushed wet gravel, leather, blueberry pie. On the palate is a light - medium weight, yet good lengthy of flavour, with strawberry, earth, minerality, cherry and pencil. Love an aged village Burgundy from a great vintage such as 2005. 92-93pts

My last of a case was fine, and time.

Rusticity has given way to fruit cake intensity flavours with age.

This has developed beautifully. Opened two bottles, and the extra air made the second even better. This wine continues to surprise.
