Thin little waif of a red wine, the nose is strongly strawberry, slight cinnamon: thin body with red fruit, ever so slight pepper, slight but balanced earth and oak. Good, unobtrusive French red which to me means it would go with lots of food; for this bootle, beef bourgignone of course. I have had Beaujolais with more body.

Savigny Les Beaunes: Beautiful rich nose. Lots of cherries, but with some depth and earthiness. In the mouth, light and acidic with raspberry flavors. The nose on this was a real tease, with the palate being a bit of a let down.

Wanted to check in and see how 05 villages were showing. This was quite thin with sour cherry flavors. Meh. I hope it's just in an awkward phase. Unimpressive right now.

Cranberry and strawberry, tart, no oxidation or signs of age but this is just not that charming. Others liked. B-/C+

Signs of seepage, heat spike...but the wine seemed ok. Fell apart day two.
