  Drank over two nights. Night one: Let breath for an hour. Nice fruit on the nose and palette with a tart fruit finish. Smooth medium body and nicely balanced. Night two: Slightly more balanced with softer finish. Didn't change much so I think I drank it at a good time. Good value.

  Upon opening wife described it as smelling like walking into Grandma's house. Blew off after 30 minutes but still a little disheartening. Second day much better so would plan on a little time decanted to get the best out of it. Still a nice value QPR

  Solid burgundy, dark cherry fruit, somewhat typical for 2009.

  Smooth, easy to drink and refreshingly clean. Very fruity and an excellent value.

  Medium red. Very floral aromas. Medium weight. Tart red fruit and licorice. No real elegance or length, but good, strapping village Savigny. First experience with this new Nicolas Potel enterprise.
